Yesterday I spun! It was great. I also carded some more of the Tunis, and
spent some time on the back porch to start flicking the dirt, sand (wtf,
don’t bed your handspinning flock on sand) and veg matter out of the
filthy Finn fleece I bought last year. It’s partially felted, which makes
flicking each lock an enormous pain in the ass, but this stuff is so soft
once it’s all brushed out, it’s hard to consider cutting my losses and
chucking it in the mulch pile.
What else. I deep-cleaned the washcloth collection in washing soda. Started
watching Dear White People season 2, and nearly finished the toe increases
on P’s sock. P went to field day at the teaching garden, and they ran out
of handouts on a variety of topics (good; people are interested) but nobody
came to the actual talk. Alas. Good food day though.
