Moving On

 I have .60 ounces of fiber left in the bag to spin for this year's MDSW shawl. I feel like I've been spinning it forever.


Using a drop spindle, I've collected all these singles in the 10 months since last year's fest but it's still not enough to start plying. Grrr.....so I've made a big decision.



I've decided I am going to finish up the rest of the fiber in the bag on the wheel. I feel like it's cheating but I am so over this project-and the knitting has yet to begun.
Weary of anything?

    Pretty colors!

    Yes ......so weary of the cowl I am trying to knit. I've had dropped stitches, wrong counts, etc......I can't tell you how many times I've started over. WAY TOO MANY! LOL

    We've only been home a little more than a week and I'm already tired of the rain.

    I have the same issue with my Wensleydale wool. Was thinking about moving to the wheel but than decided to stick to drop spindle. It is so slippery, I am afraid I will not cope with it.
    Your yarn is so colourful, the shawl will be beautiful.

    Oh, yes! It happens when I take on a large project like this; I guess I have short term tastes now!

    I don't think I have the patience for spinning!
    Beautiful stuff, though.
