My poor neglected wheel…
Posted on | April 13, 2007 | 7 Comments
Got a workout tonight at the spinning guild :) Woo-hoo! It has been a few weeks since I gave poor Suzie some attention, but I caved and ordered this stunning Merino/Tencel blend from Zen Mama (her shop is here), and it was just the inspiration that I needed!! I love the spinning guild – it’s a kind and diverse group of people, tons of fun & tips being shared all around, and I came home with farm fresh eggs & goat cheese. You can’t beat it! One of these times I need to take some pictures to post – this weekend two of the members are shearing (shetland sheep for one and alpaca for the other) and the event at the following meeting is a fleece sale, that would be fun to document. In the meantime, pics of the fiber and spinning in progress:

Oh My God, that’s gorgeous!!! I have been saying that I am not buying anything this weekend (crazy, I know) but I think I could make an exception for something shiny like this.

[...] I picked up from Maryanne at Three Waters Farm, who was vending at MDS&W. I was inspired by Mel’s lovely stuff – it’s so shiny! I have another batch that is green, since I couldn’t get that colorway [...]
