Spin the Bin 2022


The challenge is to get together a bin of at least 24 ounces of fibre to spin in the year.
This is my bin,
and all the fibre (930g/32oz).
Since I have been spinning everyday in February I finished spinning my bin.
The four bigger, colourful skeins on the bottom of the above photo are for socks, and the grey is half of a larger spin (that is now finished) - I am hoping to weave a blanket.
Ended up with 5299m (2,332yds) of yarn.
Since February isn't over I dyed up some more fibre this week.

I finished knitting a small scarf this week-

The pattern is Easy by Martina Behm.
I used a 32g leftover bit of handspun for this one.

Photos from Around-

We have had more storms this week (really about every second day since the beginning of the year, and part of the reason I have been able to spin so much). We were even snowed in for a few days this week with a couple days in a row of blizzards.
Lots more snow photos (I am sure you are getting just as tired of seeing them as we are, but one day it will all be melted, and it might be nice for me to look back on this as a one off winter - hopefully!).
Sunset.
The driveway is in there somewhere.
Molly loves pushing her ball in the snow and trying to find it.
So much snow.

All the best!♥︎
