Spinning progress
OMG SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT. Nice, even, slub-less singles which, if I do a 2-ply, will probably end up somewhere around fingering weight.  My plying is better too…I tried my hand at chain plying on the spindle today and it was actually bearable to look at.   WOO! (and it only took an entire 4oz. rovings to get it right…*wince*)

Bought my first drop spindle today...
Made my first foray into spinning (Corriedale in light gray).  It’s been…interesting.  I’m learning how much drafting is enough, and am still struggling with too much vs. too little twist.  But, for only playing with it for about a half hour I’d say it’s not going tooo badly so far.  Although… there’s something to be said for the discomfort of having...

mysevenkids replied to your post: you should really block the stuff you have up for sale - makes it look a lot more professional. Get a cheap set of kids’ foam waffle blocks. You can interlock only as many as you need. You can pin the knitted item to them with thumbtacks and lay it on your bed (or prop it against a wall at night) Oh, I hadn’t thought of that!  Thanks for the tip!...

Help.
jessieintheyu-k: notablyindigo: jessieintheyu-k: I’m addicted to digestive biscuits dipped (more like drowning) in Nutella. This is not a problem.  I’m not sure why you’re asking for help. :P Hahhaa I admit it’s a #firstworldproblem to the max. But still a problem.
