The What Color is Your Sheep? swap ended last month. My color was green and my partner's was pink. This is what I sent- Two spinning batts, top, stitch markers, knitted sheep and extra "sweaters", and a tote. All handmade!
And this is what I received- Lots of BFL and blends batts, roving, an embroidered project bag and for the handmade, a knit toad bag! He opens up wide!
I was given an old Structo 600 table loom by my sister's MIL with the promise of me making something for her. So I wound off some black cotton along with some colors of what I suspect to be an acrylic/nylon blend, and a bit of Aunt Lydia's bamboo crochet thread, and put it all in a varied stripe with a single point twill, reversing midway.
I wound off enough warp to make two wide scarfs, so the first one will be plain and the second I will play with the pattern a bit. But, I might end up making something else with a more complicated pattern out of some silk I picked up.
