After I muddle my way through the rest of New England I’m considering starting the Master Knitters Program (as opposed to letting that red folder just sit with my knitting mags). I’ve ordered (and received) some Wool of the Andes for my swatches, so I’m set on materials.

I’m also toying with the idea of a series of essays regarding my ‘virtual farm’ — from planning what critters I’d like, an overview of husbandry and medical issues, fiber preparation (of course there’ll be some fiber animals — angora bunnies, alpacas at a minimum)….groundwork and self-education for the day I may, someday, actually be able to do something like that. More to follow…
