Oh it has been a busy couple of months and I have been remiss in updating my site! I really like my new job, but it sure cuts into the time one can spend doing all the important stuff, ya know.

Well, anyway, I have updated my website spindlepins so take a look.

Went to Kid 'N Ewe & Llamas, Too last month and picked up a Bosworth midi spindle in purpleheart. What a sweet spindle! Here is a picture of it .











I also got a spindle as a present to myself for getting a job under my deadline! From The Wheel Thing, Janet enticed me with an 'Emily" lacewood spindle from Adam Mielke. It is really beautiful! I have a lacewood niddy noddy, too. Put them in the sun and they just glow.


Okay I think this is enough for today. Must get ready for work. I hope to have more later. Got some bobbins for my shuttles finally and am in the process of unweaving my scarf as I did not like the way it came out. Live and learn!

I participated in a distaff exchange on the Sheep Thrills list recently. Yesterday, to my surprise, my return distaff came. It is a wonderfully soft merino/silk blend, spun up in the poofiest 2 ply yarn by 'Marcy of Oley' :-) I am going to cherish it each time I use it. I will be putting my silk pictured below on it shortly and taking it with me to my guild's Christmas party on the 16th to show it off!

That's it for today.
