I'm trying to get organised after having to move everything, but I've found myself distracted by the button box. Do you have one?

We've had some marvellous rinsing and drying weather and my suinted fleece is lovely and clean.

Time to card it into fluffy rolls for spinning. Mocha loves to assist, as usual. (My hands are glad of the intensive lanolin treatment!)

Shepherd's purse - One of the flowers I learnt about from my great grandmother. I love the shape of the seed pods.

Rose fibre and real wool.

Having a bit of a spin. I don't make nice even yarn - I don't have the attention span for that - so I add bumpy bits and slubs to my yarn, and change colour frequently. It makes it a surprise when I ply.

Today has mainly been about warping my loom ready to weave. This is a chance to check every bit of the warp yarn and get a good foundation. It's tricky to do alone so I bribed a teenager!

Beautiful rose fibre on my wheel today. It's very silky and soft. I'm trying to decide what to ply it with.
