I few things to improve upon but generally I like it! Started working on a rust coloured linen version today #crafting #selfdraftedpattern #pinafore #handmade

My toxic trait is believing it’s faster/easier to draft my own pattern entirely from scratch than print one off and follow someone else’s directions. Working on a pinafore dress today

Shop update at 9pm et tonight! Previews up now at stitchandsteelhomestead.com

Still really feeling like poop but I managed a little bit of wool work today…

Hoping to get around to posting a shop update tomorrow or Wednesday!! Lots of funky weird experiments in this bunch but they should be fun to spin!

Winter makes wool-Being outside instead of cooped in a barn in the winter encourages longer staple lengths and denser fleeces. And under 5+ inches of wool right now, the sheep barely even feel it!

Red sky at night…

I don’t really like change. But I don’t like Meta more. So I’m trying this new thing and I hope it sticks. Please enjoy the icy majesty of the view from my driveway.
