Busy, Busy

So I rented a booth at the Fiber Anything Sale, which is a place where people can destash their extra fiber arts stuff. So sort of like a jumble sale but just for fiber arts stuff. It's supposed to be purely for people selling their stuff off but! My prices are already so low I think it could work. :) I'm hopeful, anyway.

So last weekend I went up to my parents' place and Jackie filled my trunk full of stuff she doesn't want to look at anymore. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do if no one buys it but my yarn cone population may have just doubled. And I have been dyeing my fingers off (Well not so much off as blue. And green. And purple. I'm not good at wearing gloves) and producing many braids in hopes of having a range of colours and fibers on offer when I get there. As you can see... I have been very busy:

So much dyeing! I really feel like I've been improving both my process and my eye for colour... though I'd be lying if I said none of my attempts got quietly shuffled out of sight. :P In any case, today I printed up a bunch of labels so people will know what the braid is.

Look at that. I made that with my own little hands and there it is, looking very nearly professional. I had to send these two braids off to (hopefully) happy spinners who won them in the recent Team Merlin Tree Tour Du Fleece, but I took pictures and I keep pausing to open the image and coo at my own creation.
