First up, Coriolis socks. These are in the New Pathways for Sock Knitters book by Cat Bordhi. I haven't got too much progress because I've been working on some other things this week, but there is more of a toe for the second sock than there was last week!
I am loving the new shawl patten I picked for the Bead-A-Long. I'm saving a picture of the knitting for the BAL post this Saturday, but here's a close up of the stockinette portion in the yarn I dyed.
I've been spinning!!! And I am improving a lot over when I first tried spinning several months ago.
Here's a close up of the singles. While it is still thick and thin in some places, its definitely getting more consistent than not. And now I can spin and draft without having to park and draft. Now I actually get going enough that the spindle reaches the floor!
Don't forget to join in my Yarn Give-Away until the 15th!!

Those greens are beautiful - must be very exciting to knit up your own hand-dyed yarn!
Looks like your drop spindle spinning is also gaining momentum. I'd knit that without hesitation!
Wow! That green knits up beautifully!
Your spinning is looking fantastic :) Love the green colour too
Your hand dyed yarn is very gorgeous, and it looks like you are doing great with your spinning skills!
Good luck with your Etsy shop! I love that "mermaid" color.
The colour for your shawl is beautiful!
Oooh that spinning!!! I love the colours so much! Beautiful!
Have a great week

Your yarn looks great, I love playing with dying. Congrats on the spinning. I'm a novice who's spun only twice, but I've got to get back to it.
Love the color of your sock! I have been wanting to learn to spin. My ambition for my "later" years is to own sheep and make my own yarn. Would make dh very happy since I spend too much on yarn-in his opinion. :)
Love the socks they are right up my street.
As for spinning I take my hat off to you, I definitely don't have the patience to do that!
Love the colour of your toe up socks, the green you dyed for your shawl is amazing and the spinning is way better than my attempts!!
beautiful spinning. I'd be tempted to leave it on spindle for decoration around the house as it very pretty x
Gorgeous spinning! That yarn will be yummy.
That greeeeeeen is beautiful!
love how the black jumps out in those socks
LOVE THIS POST!!! It's so awesome to see yarn others have dyed knitted up!! It's gorgeous. Also, your spinning is great. I actually love thin to thick yarn. :)
Love the colors in your socks. I just started knitting toe up socks a few weeks ago. I'm loving it so far. Take care.
The colors your spinning are breathtaking...what are you going to make with it when you get it all spun?
That green is very pretty. Great job with your spinning.
