I have some beautiful Ashland Bay merino top, procured from Ba,
The short staple length has taken some getting used to, but I am now swearing less and spinning more. Here's my progress so far.
I am feeling contemplative and melancholy, and spinning was just what the doctor ordered. My mother would have been 65 today. She died in 2005, but she was lost to me years before that. She is finally at peace. I miss her terribly.
Hugs Rosemary.
ReplyDeleteShe shares a birthday with my beloved nephew.

The yarn is beautiful. I hope that spinning continues to bring you peace.
ReplyDeleteIs that color 'cranberry'? I have wanted some of that for awhile and haven't shelled out because I have too much stash... spinning is Good For You.
ReplyDeleteRosemary- Such a lovely shade of purple.
ReplyDeleteSpinning is supposed to be great therapy.
I always find that spinning brings me peace whenever I'm troubled. I'm glad that it brought you peace today on a very troubling anniversary. *hugs*
ReplyDeleteOh Rosemary. I'm sorry. Hugs from me, too.
ReplyDeleteSpinning in the color of the very early morning sky, with the new day on the verge, sounds just right.
Spinning is always good for the soul !
