On Sunday (at least I think it was Sunday) I finished spinning up my Corriedale singles and yesterday afternoon the kids were polite enough to have a 2 hour nap AT THE SAME TIME(!!!!!!!!) which gave me an opportunity to ply up 3 (!!!!!!) bobbins AND I was able to finish spinning up the brown Shetland I had going on the Victoria I had rented for a few *ahem4ahem* weeks from LettuceKnit!
This morning I tried winding off the now 2ply yarn so the bobbins were set and ready to go just in case as the saying goes “lightening strikes twice” and the kids comply with the napping this afternoon. However as with all my attempts to do anything fiber related I ended up with “help”:
“Look, Mummy, I fixed it! Dosen’t it work much better now!”
“This is the best teething chewie EVER!!!!!”
“wait, Wait!!! This is better, I swear it will work WAY better now because I KNOW THINGS! Besides knitting needles are for KNITTING not whatever you are trying to use it for here!”
“Mummy?! Why is the air around you a peculiar shade of Blue?”
I’m going to have to try to be all stealthy about this task…or perhaps I’ll just pop in a movie so I can get the job done with out “help”.
The yardage is at present unknown and I think I might invest in a McMorran Balance to help me out but it looks to be a DK/light worsted weight. I’m super pleased with it and excited to start to design my first adult handspun sweater!
