Well here we are again, starting my blog over. Hopefully I will keep up with it this time.

Yesterday was a fabulous day! I got my spinning wheel!! A Lendrum ST folding wheel. I am in love. Unfortunately the plying head is broken and I still waiting to hear if and when they will send me a new one. Ugh.

So I sat down and spun like a fool yesterday. Took a while, but I am finally getting the hang of it. My yarn isn’t so even yet, but it is soft and squishy and all mine.

Here is what I made!

My first single, it is a wool blend in Marigold from SE

Oscar the Grouch—-30 yards of corriedale (the green, Hosta from Spunky Eclectic) and merino (the white is mill ends from the Sheep Shed) plied. Named by betzi’s son from Craftster.

St. Patty’s Day—30 yards of corriedale (Pine from SE) and merino (ends again) plied.

That’s it for now, I am spinning some gorgeous Delphinium blue right now and working on getting it EVEN!
