Gator Yarn!


Gator Yarn!

It almost Gator Football Season kids. Now I Know many of my friends, ( Teresa and Jackie ) will root for that other team, the Noles I am a Gator Girl. My gal pal, www.sugarbeestudios.etsy.com dyed up this roving for me earlier this year and it has been patiently waiting for me to be inspired.

Last night I plied it up, completely filling up one bobbin and will have to empty that one today and fill it up again!! The colors are gorgeous and I think this is how I set up my Kate. Like my favorite blogger and the queen of us lowly knitters says, "I do not call it a lazy kate" I can not seem to find any instructions on how to set it up. it seemed to work ok like this last night.

Pics within a few days of the finished yarn.

But first a weather report.. .... .....
Tropical storm/ Hurricane / what ever it is FAY, at the moment looks like it is going to hit Florida a 3rd time right around my house. Updates as they happen.

For Gator colors, those are very pretty! Can't wait to seem what happens next.

Sure hope that Fay character doesn't do much damage your way.

We may not enjoy the colors but your FSU friends certainly appreciate your spinning talent!
