Here is a photo from the last time we moved, almost a year to the day. This was half an hour in, stolen from my daughter's Instagram page. Poor Ginny, no-one should make their mother look like this.
So I've begun by hitting the chocolate, followed by the dregs from the alcohol cupboard in an attempt to keep my chin up. This may result in my new Blog Regularly mindset to be slightly knocked off course, but I will try!
So tomorrow we are back weaving at Wickerwool. My new loom will arrive and hopefully Heather will be able to set me off. I've been spinning crazily all weekend, I stole some of my own fibre - the Pollyanna dyelot and have spun as thinly as I could because I'd like a delicately woven scarf.
As I've said previously, I'm a complete novice so I'll be interested to see how Heather uses it. The single looks like this which is slightly affected by the kitchen lighting but you get the effect.
I'm waiting for Spin to Weave by Sara Lamb to arrive so I can check what I'm doing is right but hopefully tomorrow I'll be making my own tentative steps as a weaver.
We're also dyeing tomorrow for our own yarn to weave, it's an open invitation, pay for your materials but come and share your knowledge for a donation of £3 (for scones and cake). We're there from 10am
