"Hi Kathy, Welcome to the wonderful world of fibre. The yarns you saw on my site are pretty much all spun by me. I started serious knitting, couldn't see what I wanted and before I knew it I was spinning my own. I do have an Etsy shop if you…"

Why I won't be Posting here often.

Hi everyone.Now please don't take this the wrong way, I just won't be posting a blog here. But hang on, before you groan that you have come accross another antisocial old bat, I do have a really good reason (promise!) and I could possibly get a note from my Son to excuse me if it isn't.The thing is, I'm a bit on the poorly side (I have both Brittle Asthma and ME), and as a result, I have limited energy which I try to spend as much of as possible knitting and spinning (the weaving is having to…See More

About Me:
I am a total fibre addict! If I'm not kntting it, I'm spinning it or weaving it.... I have been told there are other things in life, apart from fibre and yarn, but this only leaves me feeling confused and bewildered, so I don't listen!

I have a blog about fibre, an Etsy shop devoted to fibre and I spend lovely hours everyday on Ravelry...... a total lost cause really!

Favorite Yarn:

Hi Yarnspider: My name is Kathy and I am new to knitting. I love the colors of yarn shown on your web page of peach-yellow etc. Where can such fine yarns be purchased. I am new to knitting, however, there are certain colors and I don't know much about Alpaca yarn, but I sure would love to try and knit some time! I live in Baltimore, Maryland and I have knitted plenty of scarves, however, I am taking lessons so that I can knit a sweater and I am thinking of using Alpaca. Any ideas on an easy pattern for a beginner?? Thanks for your response!! Kathy

I love the yarn in your photo!! Looks like Chameleon Colorworks: Indian Summer...I am spinning it right now on my 'new/antique' Canadian wheel. I just bought it off of E-bay and it spins so fast!!
