Stage 19

Hard to believe there is only a few days left in Tour de Fleece for this year. I’ve managed to spin every day of the race, which was one of my major goals, and I surprised even myself by not only wheel spinning but also digging my spindle out and getting more of the corridale roving done. It was my first year participating and I’m so glad I have. My instagram is completely filled with spinning awesomeness, and I hope it keeps up after the tour is completed.

Pictured above is my corridale dyed with kool-aid. Pretty proud of how consistent my singles are coming out.

Trying to Break into the top 100

I’ve been working on my pet collection – slowly. Leveling up the ones that are not 25 yet (I have a LOT of those) working on achievements, doing dailies, dungeons, and all that fun. I managed to do the celestial tournament without too much hassle, and next week I should be able to purchase my 2nd pet from there. Otherwise, I’ve just been watching the market and picking up anything that is 50% lower than normal market dictates

I don’t typically purchase duplicate pets because I’ve never really seen a use, but I might start doing that too, and selling them. We’ll see.

As always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!

Tour de Fleece

I’m really tickled with the result of my first 4oz of merino/nylon from Knitpicks. The roving was on sale, marked 40% off, so it was $5 for 4oz, plus I had a 20% discount coupon so after I purchased 2 (planning on plying them together and then knitting socks) I lamented to my husband that I should have purchased more, and he suggested I purchase -20- more.. I thought he was joking, but turns out he was being serious, so I made the purchase and I’m so very excited. It’s roving that I know will get used, that I happen to spin well, and while it’s not coloured, I’m thinking I might dye some up, either as roving or yarn (probably as yarn, I’m afraid of felting roving). The price was amazing, and came with free shipping so I really have no complaints. Except that now I have to wait for it to ship here, of course.
