The first video was about choosing the fibers to fit the requirements of a baby blanket. Machine wash and dry, easy on mom and babe. Then we spun and swatched (not squatched) a bit, only to find that the really pretty Sky Ladder by Anne Hanson, was a risky selection in that the yarn might be too competitive with the stitch work. Sigh. Decision made to go plain knit/purl stockinette. Blend, spin, knit, soak, dry. Done.
The little painting in the kitchen is "Cape Fear River Bridge" by Robert Morin Isley from Savannah, GA. Great painter!!
Sorry about the scratching. Poison Ivy.
