I have been up and about for 14 hours now - dyeing, spinning, packing, sorting....it doesn't seem to end right now. I have got soooooo many ideas swirling around in my head that I cannot stop and sit down and say "oh, let's do it another day", because my head won't let me sleep......!!!!!!!!!! I have finished a new range of wonderful and yummy soft handpainted Alpaca rovings (I felt like Alpaca so I DID Alpaca ;o) ), another range of goooooorgeoussssss handpainted Tussah silk rovings (wait for the colours to be displayed in my Ebay store soon!), and I have also packed up another 3 new sets of creativity mixed bags for all fibre fanatics out there :oD . And because that includes me I have kept a fourth bag to myself.

Anyway, I am feeling better than 4 days ago, still a bit jelly-kneed but I am getting better slowly. Heaven knows what bug I had caught, no idea, as long as it goes away again I really don't care. After 5 days I have finally managed to finish my first spring yarn design - wait! - don't expect any greens and blues and all that to appear...OH NO... Heike had lots of daffodils and lavender in her head, including little bees buzzing around during the first warm and sunny days of the year (which may still take a while to come...sigh...). So I went for "Honey & Thyme" Bluefaced Leicester cosy yarn, have a look:

yep, I wanted a simple fresh and sunny yarn to look at, and I absolutely love the result!!!!!!! "Honey&Thyme" is now for sale in my Etsy store at www.alltheprettyfibers.etsy.com .

Well, I am definitely retiring now, I have been up way too long. And I still have those colourways in my head....hm.......
