As well as not having blogged since July, I haven’t done any spinning since then either.  During the blogathon, I posted that I was spinning some gorgeous merino fibre.  I got maybe 10g of the 100g braid actually done, and the spinning wheel has been in a corner ever since.  I suppose I sort of [...]

Still working on the bipolar post (I should stop faffing, really), and I’ve also realised that I seem to somehow be a post behind.  So, here are a couple in quick sucession.  I haven’t posted on here yet about the yarn I’ve spun, and since now is a good a time as ever… here is [...]

I’m still working on the bipolar topic post, so I though that this half hour I’d show you what I’m currently spinning.  Well, not currently, since I’m typing right now, but you know what I mean ;-)
I am, by the way, very much a beginning spinner, so my results aren’t fabulous, but the whole two [...]

As I said the other day, I’m not only going to be talking about bipolar, but also about the knittng and spinning that I’m doing.  I’m even hoping to get some spinning done during the event (because if I sit on this computer chair for 24 hours straight, I may never get up.  It also [...]

Today is 4th July, which means it’s the start of the Tour de France for this year, and therefore also the Tour de Fleece.  (I understand the date also has some link with Americans blowing up aliens with fireworks, but I’m not really sure about that.) And what that means is spinning along every [...]
