Neat! I was just explaining to my younger daughter yesterday about a friend of mine that raises Angora rabbits for their wool so she can spin it into the softest yarn I have ever felt. Looking forward to reading about your adventure!
Thanks for the peek. I'll be back tomorrow.
With scones..., you can drop by my place anytime.
Spinning! I would love to learn that! The scones look delicious- I am feeling peckish now...
What a tease you are! The scones and jam look so good. I just had my cereal this morning. Sigh.
We have friends who raise angora (?) rabbits, and she spins to make the yarn. They live a long way away, so I don't know if she knits it or (K)not. (giggle, giggle)
I love learning new things and this looks like an very interesting day full of good food and friendship.
Looks like fun! Thank you for stopping by to encourage me today!
Sorry dear Debbie, I am bilated, but I wish you from deep of my heart -
Happy Anniversary!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
God bless!!!
Thank you so much...
too cool. so how much does it cost to live in a trailer park out there? ya got any white trash neighborhoods a southern girl could afford?
I would love to learn how to spin! That looks like a fun day. That was sweet to bring the scones along.
Ahhh...I've not sat at my spinning wheel in way too long. I did just buy another spinning teaching video to help me perfect or really know what I'm doing. But I have knit two sweaters from wool I spun and dyed.
I used to demonstrate at our Western Stock Show and some other events. That's where I got the most yarn done. Men were the ones most fascinated, sometimes clocking me ... like what "miles per hour"? ;^) And loving the "machine".
Leonardo da Vinci drew the first fly wheel in one of his books (what the yarn's loading onto in the last picture.
It's so relaxing!
Thanks you for visiting my blog. I have enjoyed your pictures of the spinning lessons and can't wait to see/read more!
Neat, I can't wait to read more about it tomorrow. I've always wanted to learn how to spin. Hugs..
