So, I got a spinning wheel, from Avery, for Yule. I can’t even begin to explain how happy that makes me. She’s an Ashford Traveller….as yet unfinished Silver Beech… I haven’t stopped spinning long enough to stain her yet. Yes, it’s a she, her name is Charlotte….after the grand web spinning spider. I don’t want to post a picture of her until she’s all done, but I have a pic of the model to share….as well as a pic of my very first, usable, handspun yarn!!!

January 4, 2007 @ 11:23 amThanks, ladies… I did make my Mom a neckwarmer out of a bit of it… I might make one for myself out of a bit more, but I do want to keep at least some of it just as it is. I am having a blast with the whole spinning thing. It’s taking up much of my time and attention right now. I just wish I could stop spinning long enough to stain the poor girl…she’s still naked! lol
