The spinning class tonight was full of rock stars. I am deeply humbled by this shared love and passion for all that is fibre. Whle I watched each student find their own rhythm, I thought about how not so long ago it was when I took the same journey. Amazing. Now I can’t imagine a life without being surrounded by mega fluffs of free floating fibre.
And to come home and find this in my inbox…..well, I’d call this a near perfect day. Thanks Gabi.

Today was the first day of 355 days of yarning. In order to fully apply myself to the task, I called in the cavalry to get me through it. Toni, Mariegold, Jennifer and even Paul cheered me on, and photo documented the process.
While I was working on my second single Toni was prepping me for the day of organization tomorrow. Yes, I gave up part of my studio space to another textile designer. I felt I needed all the space, but really I was just greedy and inefficient with the space I had.
The streamlining should be good for me and it gets me in the studio tomorrow. I’ll have to remember to bring the hitchhiker home so that I will still be able to stay on point for my spinning project on the days I don’t make it to the studio. Must also remember to stuff a few batts in my purse as well then.

MelonHead unwritten law…
You must knit your first hand spun of the year.
Next rule. Immediately spin more. I have decided to spin one yarn a day for the rest of the year Who wouldn’t want their stash enhanced by 355 skeins of yarn. Yarns will be posted in the new Project 355 tab.
