I got some pictures of my Ravenwood Dragon Cloak in daylight, although not ideal pics of me necessarily. I'm very happy that I added the extra repeats, as I like the fit.

I blocked it a little differently than the pattern called for because I modified it. The pics aren't good because the light is terrible and the yarn is wet. Hopefully, it dries quickly.

Tonight, I got it off the needles, and I wove in all the ends, but I still need to wash it and block the ever loving bejesus out of it. But it's almost 10 pm so it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

The #TourDeFleece2025 hap is happening. I love the look of the barber polled yarn.

I finished the last day of the #TourdeFleeceFemme by using my blending board to prepare fibre for my next spin.

This is the start of a project which since of you will have heard me talk about for probably two years. The tarot cards in fibre.

Here we have .....
Rolled up rollags in yellows, blues, whites with a hint of orange and sparkle here and there. The rollags are sitting on a wooden blending board which has been covered with a dish drying mat to protect the spikes. This is the start of a long term fibre to design and make a fibre blend for each and every tarot card. #HandSpinning #Rollags #BlendingBoard #WoolForSpinning #FibreForSpinning #FibrePrep #TourDeFleece #TDF2025 #TourDeFleece2025
