(It's under the birth date line on profile page, also not that easily found.) Of course, I can't figure how to find email for anyone on Blogger, so guess we're even, LOL.<BR/><BR/>Getting more back to subject - I'm sure everyone's <I>fascinated</I> by LJ sidetracks; apologies, folks - I hope we'll be seeing a photo or two of spinning? And what kind of roving are you spinning, anyway?

So a nice Cab or Pinot and you're safe. :) Yes I do know about the names leading to links but I couldn't find an email address on your blog! Of course I'm senile and going blind - which will be my excuse for bad knitting and spinning - so it could easily have been there. I just didn't spot it.(formerly) no-blog-rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850761547755786771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9195137954390577016.post-42635584895673332712007-04-25T10:38:00.000-07:002007-04-25T10:38:00.000-07:00Very nice Midge.

Way too cool. Good going! And to repeat what every other spinner who's been doing it a while has told you over and over... Trust us; there will come a day when you <I>wish</I> you could manage to spin that novelty thick'n'thin starter yarn again. ;) Really. 'Cuz, you know, Colinette and others are just way too damned expensive.<BR/><BR/>(And btw, you can email any LJ blogger as long as they leave their blog URL in a comment. Just send an email to username at livejournal.com. Mail automatically gets forwarded to their real email account, so they can still drop spam into a black hole, but can email back if they recognize you. Hint, hint.

I've filled up one bobbin and a tiny portion of another - I can't wait to ply it and see how it turns out! I'm hoping for worsted weight - which is much better than the thick/thin bulky I've come up with my previous 3 times at a wheel!(formerly) no-blog-rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850761547755786771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9195137954390577016.post-80393568091207031172007-04-25T06:23:00.000-07:002007-04-25T06:23:00.000-07:00Oh man - A New Wheel, a momentous occasion.
