I'm still adding stash onto Ravelry. I was going really good there for a week or so, then I needed a break. I'm a little more than halfway through my stash, I think (probably wishful thinking.... and more like a third of the way). I've added over 200 different yarns onto Ravelry so far. I wonder what the final number will be?
Here's the next round of, yep, worsted:
Those pink, green socks are done, and I do love those pink toes.
matchy matchy too!
Next is a pair from my own dyed wool.
Love knitting these because no-one else has this colorway since I made it up myself. Also, you never know how they are going to turn out!
I've been spending some time in the creekbed too looking for colored flint. We live where a lot of Flint Ridge colored flint comes down our creek in the rains. Very pretty colors. Did you know that Flint is Ohio's Gem Stone? Yep. I'm thinking of getting a rock tumbler/polisher and making some pretty stitch markers (always about the knitting, LOL). I've also found some flint artifacts. Parts of flint arrowheads, scrapers and cores.
Lots of quartz too. Did you know that flint is a type of compacted quartz? I do like the shinies. Oh, and a few fossils too.
Lots of ancient wormy-type stuff.
and corals.
Nice to get out when on break from my stash-along. Plus, those waist bends when picking up rocks? That is exercise, let me tell you!! More later and have a good week! Cheers!!
