Spinning Around
The last couple of weeks seem to have flown by. Work, college, life, eh, it just seems to have been a never ending stream of things to do.
This morning (just) I checked twitter, realised it was the day of the Dublin monthly spin-in in Powerscourt, grabbed my spindle and headed in. I ran out of the fibre I had with me just before it was time to pack up, so I did a bit of knitting too, and spent a very relaxing few hours in good company playing with fibre. It was super, and just what I needed. The spindle was spinning instead of me.
The consensus on the cardigan is that it is indeed too big for me. (I say consensus, and what I mean is everyone thinks so except the eternal optimist R, who insists I’m just wearing it wrong). So, friends and family, anyone want a cardigan? It’s lovely. I’ll even put a button on it for you.
WOW! Spinning!!! It’s so cool to be able to determine on your own how your yarn will turn out and all. Eventually I will get there; I am still on simple things like, oh, turning heels in socks…

Really! I think it looks great on you, over a little tea dress or something.

Oo, I love the look of that yarn on the spindle! What’s the fibre?
