Humboldt Handweavers Guild

Then I went on Thursday night to The Humboldt Guild there was a talk about Nepalese Rugs. It was awesome, it was from the store in Eureka Himalayan Rug Traders.



















These were some of the carpets they had, there was also a talk on how they are made. I also got a fleece and a Inkle Loom.

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!

So a little of this and that.

So these are some pictures that I took over the last few days.

Road Trip Home

So mom and I left Tasha’s on Saturday.

We went down the Five, then jumped over to Florence.

We stopped in Bandon for Fish and Chips, one of mine and moms favorite jaunts. We also got some candy from the Cranberry store.

AS we made out way down the 101 there was a lovely little store, I am unsure what the names was? Wildrivers Wool.

I had almost made it out of the store without buying anything and I saw 8 ounces of Black Rambouillet-Finn.
