I hope everyone had a great Christmas/Festivus/long weekend! Our holiday was wonderful, despite being away from our families. Thanks for everyone’s well wishes for Rob - his surgery went wonderfully, and he’s recovering like a champ. We spent the long weekend relaxing, Rob healing and me lazing about. There was napping. Cookies were baked. A turkey was conquered. Ahhh, vacation.

Unfortunately, my crafty spirit has been broken after all those scarves - I’ve just started to get back into knitting, working on FO Fury item #4. I had intended the FO Fury series to be more, well, furious, but I dropped everything the second we decided that we weren’t traveling for the holiday. I’ve also been taking a bit of a blog break these days. I think I need to go ahead and Mark All Read and start anew - I’m incredibly behind in my blog reading, and you guys post entirely too frequently!

I did create something over the past week:

This is 52g of Skeintily Clad merino in an unknown colorway - the original fiber is here. It’s buttery soft, yum!

I’m borrowing Amy’s wheel again, so expect more spinning this coming month. I’m relaxing my goals of finishing all UFO’s by the end of the year in favor of spinning through all the stash I’ve purchased in the past week. Rob and I didn’t really do the gift exchange thing this year, so I bought some fibery gifts for myself. My goal is to spin through everything before the wheel gets returned, we’ll see if that happens…
