I swear I still spin…

I totally intended to type this during my downtime today, but every time I got the chance, something seemed to come up. It’s a good thing, sometimes when your day doesn’t go quite as planned, it makes the time go by faster. I was super busy this morning, then I went out to lunch with Suzanna, then we had a software meeting where I actually spent most of my time sketching out plans for a new sweater…when I wasn’t drawing unicorns or how I spent my day yesterday. Of course Mike had to add some details to my quick sketch…

What I did yesterday. Mike decided to add the missle.

Did I think to snap a pic of my sweater ideas? Of course not! But maybe I can sketch them while I hang out in the cell phone lot at LAX tonight.

So now, as promised, actual factual finished yarn!

Army Girl. It's really more green than yellow.

It’s over 300 yards of fingering weight. Not quite sure what I am going to do with it yet. I also started working on that roving my friend Wendy dyed. I had already spun up one cake (single, laceweight) so I am starting on the second bobbin. I think there is twelve ounces, so I am going to guess that it will be done in three bobbins. Spinning laceweight takes forever though. I will eventually ply these.
