It Was A Crafting Kind Of Day

The new craft room threw it's first party today. Although it's not quite finished (another two weeks, says Dick) Susie & Sharon, my spinning buddies, came over to play. Susie spun on her Little Gem -

Sharon carded on her new-to-her electric carder - a gorgeous blend of mohair and silk that she hand-dyed -and I spun (64s merino, colorway "Hollyhock")and spindled (that's my new Halla pansy spindle. It spins forever!)and chased cats.Oreo was very pleased with herself. She was able to get her, uhmmmm, bodacious behind to the top of a bookshelf. Don't be too impressed, no jumping was involved - she stair-stepped from the counter top to the craft boxes to the bookshelf. The effort obviously tired her out. She spent the rest of the day sleeping by the window. She and AJ are convinced that the room was built entirely for their pleasure. They both spend most of their days laying on the countertop in the sun.

All in all, that's not a bad way to spend the day.
