There was lots of spinning going on all weekend at the store. Such pretty yarns come out of everyone's wheel. Carole was learning to spin on Saturday and she may become addicted. Some folks had their electric spinners too. They are very fast. I had momentary longings for one but went home and spun on my little Ashford Traditional and got over it. I really like the process of spinning and I know from experience I will lose that and it'll become all about production. I love just sitting and spinning and watching the pretty colors wind onto the bobbin. I can make it fly too - plying can be very fast - Trust me when I say I don't absolutely NEED more handspun yarn - WANT IT - always....of course. But I think that it would be dangerous to my health to spin that fast - I would walk in my yarn room one morning and be lost forever amid the yarns - Not a bad way to go, but still.
