I’m so excited! I’m contributing a huge variety of samples to April’s box (themed “Green” - color/eco-friendly). Yesterday I designed and printed the project cards and recipe cards and packaged them. Today I dyed the roving that I’m giving and the roving I’m spinning for my handspun samples - that’s all drying now. I’m calling the colorway Little Mermaid because it reminds me of Ariel and her home under the sea XD. I also dyed a 2oz roving to sell in the shop in the same colorway incase someone really likes the sample and wants enough for a sustainable amount of yarn. Tonight and tomorrow I plan on finishing up my other samples. Hopefully I’ll have them in the mail by Wednesday at the latest. I have to make a trip to the post office anyway, since I have two gifts to send.
I also received some roving from a friend that she dyed. She was going to learn to spin with it, but ended up not learning. She offered to send it and I offered to spin it for her and send it back! That’s going to have to wait a few days though, so I can finish these samples and a bag I have to sew by 4/3 for the HSKS7.
I’m also organizing the first Kiwi Spinners Fiber Kit Swap! There’s a group for it on Rav, sign ups are going on now!
And somehow I still manage to get straight A’s!
