A little catch up

Falkland tops
I didn't post yesterday because I was out most of the day, so this is two days' work. Or rather two days of not much work! Very frustrating, but then again, I have had a lot of other things to do this week!

On Tuesday, I worked away on the rest of the first 50gr of the Falkland tops. I intend to chain (navajo) ply it, so I could ply now, but I'm going to spin it all, then ply it.

Yesterday I had not one, but two clinic appointments at the hospital so I took my spindle along with me and spun with numerous interruptions. The empty spindle filled up quite nicely, though! I have some silk singles waiting to be plied with this.

Day 12 progress
In the evening I sat down for a while with the wheel and made a small start on the second 50gr of the Falkland top. I don't seem to be making much progress, but every little bit counts!

More tomorrow!
