As I go about the mundane business of filling in forms, writing letters, tidying up, preparing food etc etc just spying a bag of beautiful and luxurious fibres inspires me to keep going....delayed gratification....10 mins spinning is my reward for my dedication to job hunting and housewifely duties.
The trouble is as soon as I sit down at the wheel and start drawing out the fibres the ideas start coming!
Things I must mention in my application forms and letters, craft ideas for the PTA's Africa Day, lesson ideas and workshop plans. So as soon as I start I have to stop....find a pen...make a note....add a word or two to the latest letter or personal statement.
Nevermind though, I managed to create this....

| I want to call this Aquamarine as that's the youngest favourite film and it's the same colour as the mermaids hair. |
Next to go through the carder will be some newly washed and wonderfully soft white alpaca, Pistachio Merino from Wingham Wool and more silk....yummy! I can barely wait. I do sometimes wonder just how I coped with life before I could spin :0)
I must find some knitters soon as I am soon going to have more yarn than I'll know what to do with!
