Here is Stacey helping herself to some merino-silk blend for spinning,
another happy customer (can't believe I forgot her name!!) with some Wonderful Wool,
and Pam and Erika getting ready to do some damage. Pam, if you're reading this, leave your blog name in the comments and I'll put up a link! Pam is, sadly, moving to Florida soon but vows to stay connected to the area through all the blogs.
Yesterday, I had a mother and her two daughters in here all learning to spin. Here is the lovely and talented Sophie
and her equally lovely and talented sister Rebecca both spinning like old pros.
Their wheel is a very elderly Ashford Traditional, probably one of the first ones to enter this country. I have such a soft spot for these old wheels and the beautiful thing about Ashford is that you can still get all the parts for them. These girls may very well be passing this wheel down to their own kids!
In other news, I've finished the lace scarf and will, hopefully, be showing you blocking pictures on Monday. I'd show you a picture now, but like most unblocked lace, it really doesn't look like much.

anything cast on fewer than five times is crap!!
Hi Lucy - the woman with the pink was me! Amy from the North Shore... don't worry, I'll be back! My new Hot Lips and Apricot Ice Sophie is moving along very quickly - just glad that felting covers flaws!
