woah! i have been plying yarns with gazillions of hand strung beads and sequins. ok, not a gazillion, but i used an entire pack of 750 and then a ton of seed beads, so it is probably close to 1500. yeah. lots. but they look so gorgeous. i think it took me about an hour and a half to do it. did i mention it looks gorgeous? i am a freak.

i am in need of dyed fiber, so i will be doing that again to-morrow. every week i dye.

amy got a bad case of the pukes, so all of you send you some positive non-vomitous thoughts. ok? starting…now!

update to-morrow. i promise. it was too dark to take photos today.

smoochies.

  5. I love beads, and your beaded/sequined yarn is so deliciously subtle and gorgeous.

    Sending positive non-vomitous thoughts your way. We went through that bug at Christmas. I hope you get to miss out on it. Start chugging fluids and vitamin C!!

  9. bonnie, methinks we were crows in our last life. you know?

    and not 1500 sequins, ONLY 750 sequins and then probably about that many seed and bugle beads. took me a mere 1.5 hours to ply. sigh. not so fun. this may be an expensive yarn, yes?

    carrie…you are so very sweet. all the time. not that all of you aren’t.

    zoe, i don’t really have patience, but i do the beads when i am too tired to do anything mindful, and they plying isn’t bad. my main worry is that they will be itchy.
