Spinning Party

IMG_6513 So . . . there was Jessica, of course, showing off her new house.

IMG_6510 And Risa, Kim, and Ina, with their spinning. (Ina’s spindle of singles was wound about as perfectly as humanly possible, I was very impressed.)

IMG_6512 Kristy worked on the sweater in her beet-dyed yarn because, of course, she doesn’t spin (but seems like a lovely person anyway) (grin). Since she wasn’t spinning, she got the comfy chair. (I mean, really, doesn’t she look comfy?)

IMG_6524 I finished my first bobbin of that blue-blue-blue merino. Now, I was told that the color didn’t look like what anybody expected, that my earlier pictures made it look more like turquoise. So, I can’t say for sure that the color you’re seeing is the color I’ve got, but I think this picture is pretty close. It’s just a lovely, medium shade of clear blue.

Oh, and so I left about 4:15, hoping that I’d be able to get Chappy out for a quick walk when I got home, before it got too dark or too cold. Well, guess what my street looked like when I got home?

IMG_6518 I don’t know where that blue sky of the morning disappeared to! For that matter, I had my sunglasses on for most of the drive home, too. Go figure. But this did mean that Chappy did not get a walk . . . although, I’ll admit, I’m tired enough not to be overly concerned about that. I had a fabulous time, but all that laughing and spinning and chatting and eating and stuff sure can take a lot out of me!

  4. Looks like you all had a fabulous time! I’m in awe of Jessica’s shelving with all those yarn goodies spread throughout it. Probably the camera flash made the yarn look turquoise before but I still think this is a beautiful blue.
