SPINNING PROJECTS
I finished spinning all the Polwarth singles for the colorwork kit. The brown is plied and I'm working on the blue. Hoping to have that done in time for a Spinning Friday post!
That should take me close enough to TdF kick-off, which is Saturday. (D and I are planning on taking our bikes up and camping at the Caldera and riding on Sat/Sun, but he's WAYYY more hard-core than I am, so I am thinking I might also take my wheel, so he can go off and ride in the blistering sun in the afternoon and I'll hang at the campsite and spin.)
DESIGNING/KNITTING PROJECTS
I finished knitting the hat for the fall collection, and cast on the mittens. Those'll be my go-to project for the week. They are Aran/worsted weight and easy, so I think will knit up pretty quickly.
I'm still working on the socks for the fall collection. I got the heel turned on sock #1 and I'm headed on down the foot. If time permits, I'm planning on getting sock #1 finished this week as well. If I can do that, I think I'll be in pretty good shape to use the month of July to knit the second sweater for the collection (most of it anyway).
All for now.....
Fall - can it come soon enough??

Yes, take your wheel so you can spin while he does his Tour de France in the blistering heat. His and hers Tours!
My hat is at the decreases. :-)
