Some nice Wip I want to show you before going ...
... on holydays.
I'm going to Spain for visiting my father-in-law and I'll stay there 7 days ... just the time to take a breathe and to recharge my batteries.
During the last days I've worked on my blue mini-hexagons rippled blanket.
I let you see ...

I let you see ...


Its current size is 170 x 66 cms// 67 x 26 inches.
It'll be a very big blanket !
It'll be a very big blanket !



At the same time, I still spin with my new wheel ...
I was pleasantly surprised by reading, in your kind comments in my previous post, that some of you are inspired by my fantastic experience and then plan to learn spinning too ... It's wonderful and so rewarding for me !
For some of you who own a spinning wheel, you should use it, try it, learn how to spin.
I understand that you don't dare. It took me 2 years before starting it !
Spinning seems to be difficult. And it is at the very beginning, at least for me it wasn't easy to draft. But when you get the right movement and the coordination between the two hands... it's magical. It's such a sensation in your fingers ...
I could spin hours and hours ...

Below, my first skeins after handwashing and drying with a weight.
I twisted the yarn to make the skeins. Ready to be windered and knitted.


It's not perfect but ... it's a beginning and I'm glad to make them usable !
The next step for this yarn is the knitting ...


I hope that some of you will take the plunge ... one day and that we can share our experiences together. That would be nice !
Well, for now I need to relax... lot of work last weeks ...
I'll be back in 8-10 days ...
Before leaving, I want to thank you all for stopping by, for your nice comments and for your kindness ...
Please, Take Care
and See you Soon
