    oh! that's so pretty! i just bought a learn to spin kit from spunky eclectic, and my first attempt was a total disaster. as in, doesn't even look like yarn. :( i think i need a spindle spinner sitting right next to me, showing me what to do. i bought spin to knit, and the instructions *seem* really clear, but actually doing it is another thing.

    Ooh, pretty! You make me want to do some spinning. Too bad the crafting plate is so overflowing....

    Your spinning is getting SO good. Isn't it fun to see how hand dyed roving evolves into yarn? I'm always surprised by what colors seem to get stronger, which get softer and which blend and change alltogether.

    Hopefully I'll get to see you in action in a week.

    And thanks so much for the manicure advice.
