Raggedy RO comes in many hues! These two skeins are on their way to Susan Weese in Colorado. She knitted the baby hat earlier on in the Blog. They were barely off of the knitty knotty and Susan whisked them away!

The gray is the ply yarn. One ply is Raggedy RO colors and the gray ply is wool fiber from Germany. I can just see the little German sheep springing on the dikes in the Northern part of the country. In the 70's and early 80's I lived in Schleswig, Germany with my husband Juergen. As you see we are here in Prescott, Arizona now soaking up the sun. Each spring we would take a 30 drive to the sea city of Husum and visit “Nord Strand” which was the Island north right outside of Husum. There we would walk on the top of the green grass dikes. The sheep would be grazing along the path and the lambs would be jumping over and around the hay bails.

I love to spin with this natural colored gray German fiber. I sometimes dye this fiber with Gaywool dyes and these skeins I left the beautiful natural gray.

The Bead Bugle is an internet bead magazine which has been around for years. I remember when they first started writing about beads and people who bead. I first met them (Bill and Tonette Johnson) doing the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show. That was during the time I made lampwork beads and sold them in Tucson at The Best Bead Show. I later went on to seed beads, jewelry design, spinning and weaving. The Bead Bugle had a booth set up with their computer and screen showing the magazine and everyone was more than excited. At that time you were sent a disk each month with the magazine and then it went to being sent out via e-mail. Being a member gives you many ideas and new designs. Check out the Oct. 2006 issue for a great article about my trip to Martinez, California for my spinning adventure and Spin in at the Retzlauf Winery. BeadBugle.Com

Beading Jewel’s Annual Holiday Show and Sale will be on November 4, 2006 from 9am—4pm. This year the beading group will be holding their fun filled bead day at the Hampton Inn located at 3452 Ranch Drive which is off of route 69, west of Costco on Lee Blvd. The show will be featuring 11 artists showing beaded jewelry, fiber art such as weaving, spinning, felted hats and purses. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to United Animal Friends here in Prescott. I will have my recycled glass wine drops and jewelry and of course I will be spinning that day on my Suzi Pro wheel. I take this wheel to all spinning events.

Linda Koch found my kit to make a fiber amulet bag on eBay. She chose her favorite color for the treasure tail and it was sent off to her. She left super positive feedback and put the contents of the kit on her web site. I also found many other fun fibers she had found in her search for special yarns and ideas. http://alteredvisions.typepad.com/altered_visions/
I have been so lucky with the contacts I have made on eBay. Linda Koch is one who loves her fiber and shares the wealth.
