Hey yall! Hope everyone is doing well. I found these two mugs at a thrift store and was wondering if anyone can ID the maker. I try not to take home pottery I can’t trace to a maker (otherwise I would be overflowing with pots…) but these just sang to me. I am in Western NC, USA. TIA!
Hi all! We are driving a huge camper and could not safely pull over, but we just passed the onramp onto 26 just before exit 31A to see a large black dog walking back up towards the outlets from the highway. It looked like the dog was wearing a collar; I just wanted to flag it here. I’m sorry this is the most I can do! I hope the pup gets home ASAP.
I am excited to announce that I have finally found my first shark tooth in the wild. I am super curious as to what it might be! I found it on the shore of the southern coast of Georgia, USA. Thank you in advance!
Hey all! I hope we are having a lovely spring. This is my second time posting here but unfortunately with more stress on my plate! I have to raise money for a surprise dental surgery and hoped that I might be able to rehome my yarn towards the costs.
I am including my handspun which I had been stocking up on in the ambitions of using it, but maybe this is where it was meant to go.
All the handspun is mislabelled as I forgot to double the length when I measured the length of the skein. Whoops!
Prices and info are as follows :)! All prices are a little up for discussion but given that I am raising money for medical bills I would prefer to raise what I can.
#1: 100% merino handspun in a colorway I’ll call Tapenade :-) it is medium weight, around 10 WPI and about 152 yards as I can approximate. $45
#2: 100% domestic wool blend, I hand dyed this fiber as well as spinning it. It is soft to the touch but not as soft as the merino. I call this colorway Mint Chutney :) It is ~144yds and 7WPI. $40
#3: 100% merino handspun in colorway rhododendron days! There is about 208 yards here and it is around 10WPI, though I didn’t check. $50
#4: Two skeins of about 166yds total of 100% merino. It is almost the same colorway as rhododendron days, but has a darker purple blend plied into the yarn. It is also around 9WPI, but I did not check precisely. $45
#5: 3 Skeins of Magallanes handspun (not by me, lol) dark green yarn. It is single ply with a lot of variation in the weight, and around 240 yds per skein. Looking for $35 for the set of 3.
#6: one skein of Malabrigos Dos Tierras in colorway Neverland. Hoping to get $12.
#7: Two skeins (one caked) of Malabrigos Rios in Archangel. Hoping for $28.
#8: 3 skeins of Juniper Moon Farm Tenzig yarn. Looking for $13 per skein but can’t find the original cost so open to info!
#9: Another handspun, but the fiber was gifted to me with zero information lol so I have no clue. It is about 180yds and is VERY silky and strong enough that I cannot snap it. It is the first yarn I spun on my ashford traveller and has a LOT of character to the ply, hahaha. There’s a detail shot in the next slide to show the fiber better. Was hoping for $20.
#10: Noro Yarn Taiyo sock yarn in colorway S7. Was excited to use it but need better teeth more than better knitting yarn! $15
That is all from me! Please feel free to leave price feedback, I tried to put the handspun at around what I felt was fair and market range, but again, information helps. I work this evening so I may be spotty, but TIA for all responses and I will try and respond as I can!
