Fiber friends are great! To Kimberly, Jess, and Rebecca: Thanks! After doing alot of research online I'm really leaning toward the Ashford Traveller. If I get the double drive which I most likely will, then I will have a pretty good range as far as ratios go. And there is both a jumbo flyer and a high speed lace flyer available to make it even more versitle. I need a compact wheel and want a pretty one too so this fits the bill nicely. I'm still trying to get ahold of my local guild to see if anyone has one I could try out. Hubby is so adorable. He's so excited about getting it for me for Christmas. I turned around and bought his big gift today off ebay, got him a heavy-duty wood lathe and jigsaw. He wants to start making knitting needles and eventually spinning wheels and such. He is a machinist by trade so it should be just a little bit different but still very familiar to him. I'm really excited about that too! I've started a biweekly knitting/crochet group/Bible study called HeartKnits in my home and can't wait to see it grow to being every week! My hands were getting tired of garter stitch today so I took a break from Tabi's scarf to make Teddy a Christmasy conehat. He says it looks like an elf hat. Pictures tomorrow probably. I soooooo need to update this blog it is driving me crazy. But I just don't have the uninterupted child-free time it requires right now! I think I'm ready for a whole new look. Maybe burgundy and brown? Thinking chocolate covered cherries here! LOL I promise this weekend I will get pictures taken and posted of all my current projects, my kiddos and my beautiful Christmas tree. Till then, may all your dreams be filled with yummy yarns!!
