As I said last week, I’ve been doing some comfort spinning to try to deal with some of the unpleasantness of life. Here’s the wool I dyed with onion skins, all spun up:
Some of it is wound into a ball because I didn’t secure the skein very well before finishing. I’d like to think I’ve learned my lesson…but we’ll see. It’s not especially even, but I don’t really care. It was fun to spin, and it’ll still be great for the project I have in mind.
And here’s a fellow spinner whom I found in my kitchen the other day.
On a semi-related note, I think a bunch of people I know will appreciate this felted insect pattern booklet. I found it through Ravelry. (Such a dangerous time-suck, but such fun!)

Please tell me the spider is shown larger than life size. (I’m all for Charlotte and her babies–I know they eat the flies–but that photo still gives me the heebie-jeebies.)

I’m kind of in love with all of them. There’s even a hedgehog!!!
