Well, I can hardly believe it, but I have finally gotten around to spinning some of the roving I handpainted ages ago. (And then had predrafted for another age.)
I think it's coming out pretty well. As I believe I've mentioned before, I'm a very beginning spinner (even though I've been learning for about a year and a half now--I just don't practice enough), so I don't expect too much, but still... I think I like it.
I've also been working on crocheting this rug out of strips of old t-shirts.
(I know that it looks like navy, gray and black, but the navy is actually black--just different t-shirts.) I made one of these rugs out of fleece a year or so ago and never made any more. Last night, I decided I had to make some more, so away I went. I have a huge collection of old t-shirts, polyester dresses and fleece remnants that I've been saving to crochet into rugs and it's about time I work on using some of them up. Besides, I think they'd be nice to sell at the craft show I'm doing in September.

Hi, I was wondering if there's any chance you would consider sharing your pattern for crocheted rugs from t-shirts? (P.S. How's your Mechanic holding up?)
I've posted the pattern, but please let me know if you need any other info.
And the Mechanic doll is still as lovely as ever. :)
