All Things New

So I decided to start a blog. I remember when I first heard about blogs, I thought "who in their right mind would want to spill out their whole lives to the whole world?" Well I can promise you that I am not going to tell you my life story. But I will give you bits and pieces of my lovely life; mostly about my new addiction to spinning, knitting, and dyeing fiber. An ongoing love for sewing, crocheting and other crafty sorts of stuff. Also my greenbeans, who I love to pieces, and most likely my models for a lot of the things I make, and about the projects we accomplish as we dive into the wonderful world of homeschooling. I decided to start a blog because I was inspired. I learned to spin from blogs and u-tube, maybe some of you can learn something from me too. My good friend Mommyca inspired me too, her cupcakes are going to be the next big thing. And of course there is Ravelry with a nice big blank spot to link up to your own blog. For those of you who don't know what Ravelry is, it's a great new web community for people who make things with yarn. Myspace with a crafty twist. If you knit, crochet, spin, weave, then it's the place for you. It's still in beta so you'll have to wait for your invite, but trust me it's worth the wait. Another good thing that happened today other than my new blog was that my new Golding spindle arrived! I love it and it spins beautifully. Spinning some nice soft Merino. So here's to a New Year, a new blog, and a new spindle! Now back to my spinning for a bit since the beans are sleeping.
