In January I used up some of my Lieu time for a vacation to Ontario. I stayed with my sister and her family in their new house they just finished building. They did a great job on everything. Lovely kitchen, family friendly, and lots of room for company! I can't wait to go back! I really needed that time off as work was getting to me and I was feeling run down. I also had one more week of Vacation time to use up before the end of February and so now I'm on a manditory vacation. - Not needed. I had actually requested to use my time off in January as vacation time but I had too much lieu time built up that they wanted me to use that for it instead. Now they find out that all unused vacation time needs to be used before the end of February so that's what I'm on now. Oh well, I'm getting lots of time in with my wheel and some knitting projects are so close to being done. I'm feeling quite productive.
Here is some fiber I recently spun up:
This is called "Fraises" and it's superwash Merino/Tencel 50/50 from Squoosh Fibers and Yarn. I did a 2ply and ended up with 350 yards.
This one below is 50/50 merino/soysilk dyed by Pigeonroof Studios. I love this one so much! It's called "Morrocco" and I did this in a 2ply and got 288 yards. I had to spin it up as soon as I got it in the mail and didn't get a photo of the fiber unspun.
