Can't decide what this guy is Sneezy?

Yes these animals are dead but they are used for learning. It was also when people felt the need to collect and catalog all things… a bit creepy Yes but most of these animals seem to have their own personalities.

Also some pictures of the charming weather we have had here over the past few days.

A snippet from the world of my mind


While I know that might sound a bit scary to some of you it is true, this was what happens in my world some days.

So I went to my storage unit it search of Bacteriology notes from last Spring. Well they weren’t there and the light in the unit didn’t work despite getting a new bulb. I know a point in something, first of all I have way too much crap, this storage unit, that I call Storage unit #1. I call it this because it is one of two. But One mainly contains books and stuff. Two ( this one is at my house) mainly contains, yarn, a knitting machine, soap making supplies, bookshelves, dye pot, crock pots and luggage. The third well or as I call third storage unit is really in my house. I went through one and didn’t find what I was looking for, while going through two I found some beautiful black plucked angora.


Now here is where the story pauses, this happened to come up at Thursday nights Yarn tasting as someone ( won’t say who so you don’t pester her) has a German Angora. Well if you know me, you know that mom and I had about 20 English and French angoras for a bit ( a bit means more then five years).

Well I nabbed the bag because I like black angora.

Also in said storage was a pound of brow Merino…. Nice I ll have to remember to come back to that some day. Buy the way this isn't my "nice fiber" this is the fiber I deem less likely to want to work with.








Also this is some that I brought home from moms house… but the number of unwashed fleece I have is astounding… I really need a bathtub to deal with it all.

MY breakfast because it was eggs from my Aunts Chickens and they were tasty.



Some funny penguin cartoon I was watching when Tomi called me… and the Rain.





My Bacteria ( from my lungs) on Sheeps blood agar The new Piecework which is great!

Yarn Tasting at the Northcoast Knittery- NORO

So tonight I went to the Northcoast Knittery for A yarn tasting. The tasting was of Noros new yarns for the year.

No I didn’t take pictures of people but I did take pictures of the yarn.

We were given our choice of 3meter lengths of yarn , in 10 varieties to knit and sample.With two new kinds at the end.

I started knitting them but lost one of my swatches. Really the fun was sitting with people knitting, and testing yarns one after another to see
