Found It!

I took almost a year off from spinning and now I'm ready to kick it in gear. I think I was inspired by the recent Yarn Harlot photos. I'm starting out with some Louet BFL. I am definitely a little rusty and my plying is loosey goosey uneven. But I think with some practice I can get a little more uniform.



The last box in the garage had my dye bins in them. The box was labeled TV remotes so I never thought to look in it. TV remotes, my ass. That caused me days of worry, plus I was starting to believe that the moving men were a ring of fiber arts thieves preying on the unsuspecting. What a relief.



Since it is continuously sweltering here, I thought I would give the solar dye thing a whirl. And since the sailors' rhyme goes "Pink sky in morning, sailor take warning", I am trying some sky pink in honor of tropical storm Dolly. It's not supposed to hit us directly, though the base is handing out safety pamphlets and freaking my kids out with all the drama. Run Toto Run!!!!
