I learned to spin today!
The lovely and wonderful Jody Pinault came to my office during lunch today and taught me how to spin yarn with my new hand spindle. I am so stoked! When I came home from work, as soon as I walked in the door I showed my husband my new craft and he took some pics to document this occasion:
Ugh. I need to do *something* about my hair. sigh.
I am so excited about this. Jody brought some fiber for me to practice with. She included about an ounce of cashmere! It is soooo soft. Just lovely.
In scarf knitting news… I finished my SCU orange scarf and wore it to work today:
And I started another one using my LaBoheme yarn that I got in Spokane. The colorway is Safari. I recieved my Noro Cornelia Tuttle book 2 in the mail yesterday and decided to knit the Trana scarf. I think it will work well because it looks kind of short and I only have on ball of this yarn. At more thatn thirty dollars a hank, I should hold off buying another for a scarf. Here’s what I have done so far:
What a wonderful fiber-filled day today was!
I need to jet. Gotta go eat dinner and then knit a little bit on my Zimmerman. Have a great evening!
