Today was a bit more complicated.  But I only needed a half an hour.  Where to go and what to do.  Let’s try the backyard again.  I didn’t feel like dragging the wheel out, but I do need to do some homework for my photography class, so why not outdoors today?

Exercises for class were to work on the manual settings and to work with natural light.  Making sure that I had enough time in the yard, again finding that half hour didn’t seem to be a problem, I had ample photos to work with. When I came back into the house to spin, it was a definite shift in work.  More productive and accompanied by a lovely new herbal berry leaf tea. I did decide to navajo ply yesterdays’ merino and mohair wool.  It’s currently soaking in the sink.  It’s only about 40 yards, but I think it will make something amazing. Off to Abbottsford tomorrow to teach at Birkeland Wool.  Looking forward to my half hour–rain or shine.
