We usually go there on Wed. nights while a couple of my kids are at youth group. It is closer to her house from our church than back to mine (12 miles instead of almost 20) so we go hang out a while, let the kids all play together, exclaim over babies, make dinner, knit a little while together.
But now it is dark earlier, so it was fun to go earlier tonight and let the kids play on the playground out in the circle of apartment buildings. And it gave us more time to play with quilt blocks, yarn, and a spindle.
DD #1 has decided she wants to ply some fabric with some handspun yarn and bits of stuff to make "art yarn" for an upcoming project. So she figured she should play with a spindle to see if she could actually spin something.
I had brought along a spindle and a batt of Blue Jeans merino that I got from

So Congrats Desirée, and here is a pic of your diligent evening's work.
And, dd#2 made chocolate chip cookies. Yummmmm!

It's funnier looking this morning, LOL! Or maybe I mean fuzzier... I'm having cookies for breakfast.
It will be fine, Des! All handspun "blooms" or fuzzes out a little when washed.
