Spring, School, Papers and Dreams of Spinning Wheels
April 24th, 2010
It’s getting to be that time of year again. The weather is increasing beautiful (with the exception of today and tomorrow and their chilly greyness) and I’m stuck inside studying for finals and writing papers for school.
I’m finding my thoughts drifting more and more to fibery pursuits lately. I think a good part of it is my brain protesting the amount of information being shoved its way and dreaming of the meditative quietness of spinning as a reprieve. In any case, I’m considering adding another wheel to the family – something quiet, (so I can spin while watching TV with the boyfriend), preferably double treadle (all my wheels now are single treadle) and I’m thinking an upright or castle-style wheel would balance out my collection nicely. We’ll see about a new wheel after I get my plans for summer employment ironed out.
This school stuff is worthwhile, I must remember. And summer break isn’t too far away!
Back to work with me…

Your blog tutorials have been just wonderful. Please don’t give them up! I am busy growing my flock, and wish I had the time to study the fiber, like you do. Please keep up your excellent work!
