Indonesia Espresso of Simon Levelt . But that is not I want to blog about. It has been kind of busy here, meanwhile I managed to do some little projects of my own. First of all the Felt Clogs . Because I really have to destash, I used some of the organic veggie O'Wool and knit with double yarn. A nice and really fast project, resulting in a pair of comfortable and warm slippers. With the leftover of the yarn I also made a pair for Dory, using a thread of that fluffy novelty yarn in the cuff, because she loves fluffy so very much. Mine, before felting And after felting Dory's before felting And after And yes, I am still spinning. Currently 200 grams of hand dyed BFL, still doubting whether I should navajo ply or use the regular ply. Well, I can think it over when spinning the second half. And here are the results of spinning and plying 100 grams of merino, 66 metre. The merino came from Wolliesje , meant for felting. Though it spins great!
