Since I got called in to help my old dental office I have not done much in the way of Wildberry Moon! I almost have my natural dye studio set up in the garage, and everything else is just waiting for my 'return' lol!
All needle decisions are on hold for now. I did get my trial package of Kollage needles to sample, and the joins on the firm cable circular needle are not good, as there is a 2-3 mm space between the cord and the needle where the yarn gets hung up. The soft cable joins are fine, but the soft cable is just to soft IMO and it is difficult to slide your yarn over. So, we'll see what comes of all that.
The rabbits are just waiting for some good grooming time, but are going to be waiting a while longer as I need to get the kids ready for back to school (shopping, lunch bags, napsacks, haircuts etc.). Also, soccer has started for Rowan and that has me at practice 2 times a week plus one game a week. Wouldn't be so hard if I could knit or spin during that time, but until I am not doing dental hygiene 3 days a week I won't be doing much for knitting or spinning.
The tomato's are finally turning red, and there are MANY of them-which means at least 2 days of canning are in my near future! Next year I will have my full garden again, but since I need to move it to a new location I just didn't have the time this year (the wood pile is taking up half of my garden space right now so next year the garden will be in a new space).
All for now, next blog: How to handpaint fiber and yarn with natural dyes
