I have been knitting

Even though I have not been posting lately I have been knitting. I finished the mitten I was working on and I made a hat for myself. I will be making a companion scarf from the remaining yarn.

I have also been spinning and I finished an experimental yarn using brown wool and cut up thrums from a weaving project.
I also made a new spindle using a pretty jade green donut bead I found some time ago. I was not sure how I was going to feel about a bottom whorl spindle but it is now my favorite spindle.
