God, the weather sucks!!!!!!! I can say with certainty that I have become depressed by all that rain and the dark days since the new year began. I've also caught some sort of bug which allows me to move in slow motion only....IT REALLY REALLY SUCKS..... :o(

So even though I am not feeling too well I had to do a little painting job just to absorb some colours into my mind. I have painted Merino rovings, Shetland rovings and some Bluefaced Leicester rovings. Some of them are already displayed in my Ebay store, and I have played around with the winter shade of deep sage, which, in its own way, is a very good colour to add to an existing colourway! I personally like sage very much. Here are some photos:

 

and while I am at it, I had also finished a dyelot of handspun Merino yarn painted with real Indigo, which is very time consuming to prepare and a bit fiddley to use (it requires a lot of dipping and turning of the yarn and preventing it from felting at the same time!!), I wanted to display this beauty last week, but I simply did not feel too well and decided to postpone it. Well, the yarn has now been sold, but as usual I would like to leave a picture of it on my blog, so it can still be viewed. Here it is, "The Magic Circle", which has found a new home in the US :

I hope you will enjoy viewing the latest photos, and do feel free to Visit My eBay Store for more details on my latest handpainted rovings! :o)

I will now try to make the best of the weather and my health...(so sucks)... I will prepare a nice hot water bottle, pop in a DVD (one that I have already seen hundreds of times...sigh...), and sink into my armchair to continue spinning a very lovely Bluefaced Leicester yarn I started 2 days ago (yep...me...really slow right now...), the colours are gorgeous spring shades!!!! Once it is finished I will try to display it at the same time on my blog as it goes out into one of my online stores! ;o)
