Baa

[omly]

I started on the huge bag of roving the wheel seller included. Baaaa, sheepy! There is much more lanolin than in the wool I was spinning before, which actually made it significantly harder to spin at times. I got a lot more of a "thick and thin" consistency due to the way it would draft, even when I tried pre-drafting first. I am much less happy with how it spun up than the other stuff. We will see how it looks after I ply it. On the plus side though, my hands are so soft. Who needs stinking hand lotion?

Most of my free time is on the weekends, and the weekends are the only time I get to see Todd :(

I am going to arrange the guest bedroom into a craft room for me, using a bookcase for my craft boxes, and hopefully setting up my sewing machine in there too. (not that I know how to use it yet *blush*)

I know you do cross stitch (and needlepoint in general?). What other crafty type things do you do?

I do soap making and candy making. Just cross stich, and I was trying to teach myself how to knit.

Actually one of my wedding favors is that I'm going to make chocolate castles.
