Re-entry

August 8th, 2010 · 2 Comments

I had a wonderful Weekend Out On the Lake, as usual.  I could have skipped the 5 hour drive home which should have taken a little over 3.  I hate the NY Thruway.  Killed some of my rest and relaxation buzz ;) It was a beautiful weekend with wool, old friends and new friends.

I spun:

This is 452 yards/4oz of Polwarth in the Calico Blue colorway from one of my favorite crack dealers indie dyers, ITW. I must admit to emitting a loud SQUEE when I heard she had polwarth fiber.  I lurve that fiber and this was just a joy to spin.  It wasn’t the only skein I spun either.  Then again, I wasn’t the only one spinning. This was the view out front of the Lake House this morning before we left with all the new yarn drying in the sun.  Mine is the purple/green one in the middle (or so).  I have not measured it yet, but it is also 4oz of Polwarth from Cris, but this is the Rainbow Dash colorway that I spun on the Road Bug while sitting on the dock on Friday.

I made sure my wheel was safe during our 200 mile drive…

Thank you ladies for another wonderful year at WOOL!.  And now, to relax before full re-entry tomorrow.

Craft on!

    Sounds like you had a great time. Very pretty yarn!

    Yep – one of the things I don’t miss about living in NY is the traffic. I miss the food and the fun, but traffic – not so much.

    Good luck on re-entry.

    Glad you had fun (except for the return drive). Sounds like Cris is healing, which is happy news.
