My computer woes have finally been resolved. The modem arrived yesterday and everything's working well. So now I can provide pictures for you of what I've been up to.
I head for SOAR tomorrow. There hasn't been much chatter on it this week but I do know one thing: it's been cold! Snow flurries have been falling in the night and the daytime temps have been in the 40's. Sunriver is on the high desert plateau which is around 5000 feet so it's a great place to wear one's woollens. I was able to finish the Ruba'iyat mittens for the walk from my room to the classes building.
One of the things I needed to do was clear off all my bobbins for the wheel I was taking to SOAR. In the past few weeks on and off I've been working on this fiber and plying it with a lovely heathered pink merino silk. The resulting fingering yarn came out nicely.
Autumn Sunset. 710 yards, 16 wpi, 2 ply. Medium wool plied with merino silk.

The mittens came out great! Love the yarn too.
Great mittens and beautiful yarn. I'm glad your computer problems are gone and we get to see this lovely work.
I love those mittens. The merino/silk is gorgeous, too.
