Now, what to spin . . . well there are various requirements for my Spinnning Certificate folio on the "must do" list. Trouble is the list isn't really written. I need to sort out what I've done and what I still need to do . . . Meanwhile, there's a bit of merino left over from the wool-silk baby skein. I might just use that as a warm up. The forecast for today is 39, so I don't think it will be much of a spinning day. Maybe I'll just gloat for a while.
I am a textile artist. Z is part of my name. Twist is what goes into everything I work with--metaphorically or physically. Art is the result. So come and see what happens along the way.

Ready to Spin
Putting my new Suzie together turned out to be quite a manageable task. Here she is, all ready to go:
As veteran of many Ikea assemblies, I could certainly appreciate the difference between a bunch of parts, collected in a box and this wheel. Majacraft promise that each wheel has been fully assembled and tested before shipping. Having put my Suzie together, I believe them. Everything lined up beautifully.

A dear friend with a new baby - guaranteed to bring a smile to my face! Enjoy your new wheel. But please spin something you want to, not have to.
ReplyDeleteoooooow - have fun. Suzy looks quite different to the little gem.
ReplyDeleteMay I suggest a little notebook for your yet unwritten list? :) I seem to be the notebook queen.
