reasons to cry
being almost out of tea
actually being out of tea
being too lazy to get up and make more tea
having no one around to bring you more tea
My mom washed my little sister's hat that I made.

In the washing machine.
I made the hat out of handspun yarn.
That I spun.
From roving from someone who no longer dyes.
I have no gif to properly express my anguish.
This is the most sad story ever. ;__;

I spun one and a half batts today. Then I decided that my fiber stash was looking a little low, so I spent $120 on more batts. This spinning wheel is great, and it’s so fast compared to a drop spindle! :D but I’m not going to have any money left for anything else, because I’m going to be buying fiber all the time so I can have stuff to spin with.

Operating a screwdriver isn’t a guy thing. You can do this. Just keep at it.
Yeah, I know it isn’t.. but I was a bit confused so I called my dad and he said that I shouldn’t try and force it because I might strip the screw, and then I’d really be in a mess. So, I’m just going to wait...

Follow the instructions. Meanwhile get a screw hook, 12” piece of 3/8” wood dowel, rubber grommet from home depot and 2 old CDs. Make a spindle and spin something. My girls and I have never used a wheel.
yeah, I’ve used a drop spindle for the past year or so. It’s really lovely, but...
I can’t even explain. I’ve been wanting to spin since I was 14. I’ve been waiting for weeks to take this spinning class. I get a cute little Ashford Traveler, and I get home to assemble it, and I can’t figure out to do because I don’t know what to do with screwdrivers. And this spinning wheel that I’ve wanted for years is sitting around the living room in...
So I wrote this pattern for a baby owl.. probably about 3 years ago? It’s not even a really stunning pattern or anything, it just sorta looks cute, and I guess people ended up liking it. Quite a few people ended up making it on ravelry, which was really flattering. Even more flattering is the fact that someone just translated it into French for me. :D
I can’t even make a herringbone stitch without messing up.
