Plying for day 16. It really feels like it's taking forever. I think this might be why I only spin around Tour de Fleece, I get so burned out I don't want to spin for a wile. It would be faster with a wheel but there is a big price difference so it's not something I'm just going to run out and buy. The shawl is turning out fine and I'm getting near the end. The thing I have to decide now is how to end it. I want to do something nice but I'm not sure what. I kind of want to make a crochet edge but I I'm not sure how much yarn it will use. I'll keep thinking about it. I have a few rows before I have to make a decision.
I started watching In a Sknit. I picked it to be next because the girls are from Illinois and so am I though they are a bit farther south and nearer the Missouri border. They are kind of new to podcasting and only have a handful of episodes out. The only "problem" I have with the podcast is that they are Cardinal's fans. I grew up in Chicago and so I'm a Cubs fan by default (not that I really pay attention to baseball). It is possible that I may meet them some day if I go to any events in Illinois. Today the plan is to get caught up on kdrama and spin as much as possible. .
I would really like to go to the Bishop Hill Fiber Guild Spin-in in October. It's about an hour and a half from here and I kind of don't want to drive by myself. I wish I knew someone local that was into fiber that would go with me. I was thinking of taking my daughter but she says she doesn't want to go. I know lots of people who are into fiber (on Ravelry) but most of those people live out of state. I would like to go back to the knit night at the yarn store but my husband has been getting off work later on Fridays.
I think that's it. I need to go back to Amey and her homework. It's not hard she is just over thinking it and stressing herself out. Maybe later the kids and I can do some sewing as well. I'll see next time.
