The studio is live again!

I finally got enough unpacked to call the studio live! I suspect I'm missing a box... Which is fine... And there are a couple of "I don't know what to do with this boxes". But it's cleared out enough to start working in it. Here's Z doing yoga in the long window!

View from the studio is impeding my progress.

Meanwhile, this is what I've been up to fiber wise; I have used a lot of words to describe what's really very little progress...

• Some spinning on the orange cashmere silk I've named "45"
• Some spinning on this wool fiber with a demin like color; I spun at the Black Sheep Guilds Booth at the Redwood City Jazz Festival. Sadly it's not very even, but that should be okay. The yarn is destined to be a pin woven wrap.
• I got off by one stitch on my Seaside Affair. I took it off the needles to rip out the 12 offending rows and put it around my body just to make sure that the size was right. GOOD THING as it's 10-14 inches too big. I frogged it last night, so now have no easy knitting projects in action.
• I couldn't find a good place for a projects worth of yarn, so I finally put the project on the rigid heddle loom. I picked that loom since it's all springy knitting yarn. Two of the skeins were Dyed In Fresno but not palindrome skeins; I tried to warp them for warp pooling using Syne Mitchell's Painted Skein Bonus method that was in Weavezine; I'll get photos of that once it's going; I'm wound on but have not finished tying everything up yet.
• I started school again. Not sure how I feel about this.
• I pulled out the Green Handmaidens Towel kit I bought a hundred years ago and will decide whether it belongs on the Mac or the New-to-me Gilmore. 
• I've also been eyeing the pile of dyeable yarn in the studio and the toyon bushes in the back yard. Stay tuned on that one.

Moved, partially unpacked, having nightmares.

We moved 3 1/2 weeks ago. So far, I've emptied all the kitchen boxes, all the bedroom boxes except one, and all the living room boxes except one. I've ordered a sofabed for when DH's family visits. I'm getting the cats settled in, and working with the gardeners to put in food crops and dye plants. Today I met with the guy who will get the rats out of crawlspace.

It's been an eventful couple of months.

On the fiber side, I unpacked all the books in the studio today (9 boxes total!) and have already unpacked the spinnables and a lot of the knitables. What I need now is bins to fit in the Ikea furniture (recently built!) so organize things, so I can fit a full cubit of items in the space currently taken up by a cascading triangle of items.  Do I make these? Do I buy ones that aren't quite the right size? So many questions. I am having nightmares about settling another 7 or 9 boxes of "stuff" into the one cabinet unit that is unfilled, and thinking if I put the yarn on the loom, I won't have to store it.

Good thing I bought a new loom! It's a 40" 8 shaft Gilmore, used of course.

Hoping to post photos of something I'm making in the next week or two...
