This past week I made a lazy kate from a plastic box. Exactly like you can find on the internet where they make one from a shoebox. The knitting needles fit perfectly and once I’m done, I can put a lid on it.
On the bobbins there is a mixture of alpaca and tussah silk, bought in London this past July. The spinning isn't equal, the singles on the second bobbin came out a bit thicker. I’ve finished plying, the skein is drying right now.
I’ve been spinning quite a bit lately. I started on Thursday night. After about 15 minutes the phone rang. The parents had bought an iPad and it wasn’t working. I explained that they had to install iTunes on the computer first. Okay, they were going to do that. Before I got in the rhythm of spinning the phone rang again. They had installed the program and it was asking questions. I spend the next 30 minutes playing helpdesk. I think it’s working, I’m going over to see my parents tonight so I’ll know for sure then.
Not much knitting happened. Only a bit on a KAL.
