I've been knitting and crocheting this winter. I'm looking forward to getting the sheep sheared and getting more wool to play with!
Here's my newest project.... Socks!!
Here is a poncho I crocheted for Kit, from handspun wool from our sheep:
Sadie liked it so much she wanted one, too (this is the Martha Stewart "Coming Home" pattern, aka "The Prison Poncho"):
And for Kit's baby goat kids, I crocheted three little jackets. Here's one:
Sadie is just enchanted with the Knifty Knitters. She wanted a sweater made from the biggest one (for the bodice) and the littlest one (for the sleeves). It went together a lot faster than I thought it would. It's from two strands, one store-bought, one handspun, from our sheep. I dyed the handspun in purple coolaid to get a nice lavender color. Yes, it smelled like grape for a while. ;)

I love the yarn at the top! I wish I knew how to do this so I could make baby some longies and shorties! Love the goat coat too! lol
The blue, purple, green and brown yarn was bought at a specialty yarn shop. I've been hunting on the internet for an easy sock pattern for worsted weight yarn... ;)
