I’m still working away on my Aidez and have started the front left panel. The stitch pattern is so easy to memorize that it makes it fast to knit, which I really like. I didn’t get to work too much on this project over the weekend due to a road trip and spinning, but I have hopes that I will get this panel done by the end of the week.
Be sure to take a peak at the finished Aidez cardigans over on Kelly’s blog. There are some beautiful ones!

Do you love a good mystery? Do you love knitting hats? If you said yes to both, then join in the fun for the 5th annual Woolly Wormhead mystery hat KAL on Ravelry.
I’ve picked out my yarn and I’m excited to be able to finally use my stash of the LB Collection Baby Alpaca. I love Woolly’s designs and think this will be quite fun!
There’s still time to sign up and the KAL discussion will take place in the Wormheads Hats group, where everyone is getting ready to cast on November 1st!

As you may remember in a post a few weeks back, I took the plunge and signed up or Carol Feller’s new KAL, featuring her latest and loveliest creation, the Woodburne Cardigan.
I have yet to even cast on for this project and I think this will have to be knitted at a later date as it’s getting closer to December and I have cardigan to knit as a gift. There’s just not enough time for knitting these days!
My spinning has been going along nicely and I finished my first 3-ply skein of the Cupcake fiber in the blend of BFL an Nylon. I didn’t get the yardage I hoped for but that’s ok as I have another 3 oz to spin and have fingers crossed that I get make my yardage goal.
This handspun is destined for the Camden Cap by Woolly Wormhead and I will have enough yarn to knit it after I finish my second batch of spinning!
123 yards of 3-ply
So, what have you been working on ?
Until next time, happy knitting, spinning and crafting!
Take me OFF this list…………………………………….

I’m getting so excited seeing your Aidez all come together and your handspun is delightful. It is going to make a beautiful Camden Cap.
I have signed up for Woolly’s mystery KAL as well but haven’t picked out my yarn yet. It looks to be a lot of fun and I always enjoy Woolly’s patterns.
I’m getting excited too Simone and thank you so much … you inspired me to spin for the Camden
. Yeah, I’m glad you signed up for Woolly’s KAL!! I think it will be loads of fun.
HAHAhaha – I looked at WW’s hat KAL too:) Decided I had enough on my plate for the moment so I will have to knit it vicariously throught you!
Hahahaha…. Love it! I couldn’t resist it
Q – Tina, I really HAVE to quite reading your blog! You just lure me in.
So many wonderful things, so little time. 
Excuse me, heading over to check out the Woolly Wormhead KAL.
Just being an enabler my dear
So, did you sign up for the KAL?
Q – Yes! First i get pulled into a Mystery Shawl because of your blog, and now this! It must stop! LMAO!
LMAO … But where’s the fun in stopping! I’m glad you’re doing the KAL too and I look forward to seeing photos
Q – Too true! As a pound of Shetland fleece arrived yesterday. It’s just waiting for me to dye it and spin. Sigh…..
Sounds perfect to me
. Shetland seems to be the woo, of choice this week!
I love seeing your progress on Aidez! I can’t wait to see it finished!!
Thank you so much Mary – I was hoping to have it finished by this weekend so I could wear it in the high country here in AZ but that didn’t happen
Hey girl! What kind of ribbing is that on your Aidez? It looks “neat”. If you need someone to send it to who lives in a very cold climate, I can send you her addy real quick!
And your 3-ply is beautiful; I can’t wait to see your hat! I’m looking forward to making a hat or two myself. ~xoxo
Thank you sweet Wen! The ribbing is just a k1, p1 – I think it’s my knitting and the fiber that makes it look like it does. xoxo
Huh. Did you knit thru the back? It looks different & I like it!!
Nope, knitted normal but I’m glad you like it
