77% I've done a lot of this list.

a few I only did once and never will again: apple bobbing, and haunted house.

Some really fascinating dresses in here! My favourite was this Dior dress though.

I finished my first chain plied yarn. I think it came out great! It is a blend of alpaca, wool, silk, and bamboo. @Catsandbooks #showandtelltuesday #litsycrafters

Went to an estate sale yesterday. Bought a huge bag of lots of colors of embroidery thread. Photo to come after I deodorize it. #CraftersofLitsy #crafting

I'm currently spinning a blend of alpaca, silk and wool. I plan on chain plying it, making it a 3 ply yarn with finished. I'm not sure what I will make with it. It will depend on how many yards I get after plying. @Catsandbooks

Catsandbooks That color is spectacular! 💜🌟 3mo
bookishbitch @Catsandbooks It's what drew me to purchase it. I normally spin a lot of natural colors. 3mo

Ultimately this book is less about silk than it is about the men & women who chased all over the world collecting & studying the moths that produce it. It does provide a good overview of that & you do meet lots of interesting characters. But… the author makes some choices that reveal important gaps in her research & understanding of the regions/time periods covered in her book which is disappointing. As a result, I can‘t recommend this one.

I finished spinning some laceweight vicuña yarn recently. It is an expensive fiber due to availability. This is .3 of an ounce and was a bucket list fiber for me. #showandtelltuesday #litsycrafters Hosted by @Catsandbooks

Eggbeater Wow! That's really impressive! 3mo

bookishbitch @julesG Thank you! 3mo
Catsandbooks Wow! Looks so soft! 🌟 3mo
bookishbitch @Catsandbooks It is one of the softest fibers in the world to spin! It feels amazing. 3mo
PaperbackPirate What are you going to make with it? 😍 3mo
bookishbitch @PaperbackPirate It will likely end up as an accent area in a project I have in mind for some qiviut yarn I also spun. Although I'm about to spin some cashmere too, so it might depend on how well the colors go together with either yarn. 3mo
tpixie Gorgeous 3mo
Lindy Lovely! I can imagine the softness. Did you make the bowl also? My current project, End Times by Amy Gunderson, is using up small balls of qiviut purchased at my guild‘s fibre auction. 3mo
bookishbitch @Lindy I did not make the bowl. It is from a company called scout and bean. I have several in various blues. Your project looks lovely! 3mo
Lindy @bookishbitch Thanks Marie. 3mo
