THE NAKED DISTAFF
Apparently
spiders disapprove of naked distaffs. I
don’t know how long it would take them to finish covering it, but I ended the
effort early.
I got some Christmas knitting
done over the past few weeks. The
multicolored scarf was knit from a gift skein from Patti. The skein, Fiesta ballet is half superfine
alpaca and half tencel in the aster color.

The other scarf was spun from a
gorgeous batt Audrey gave me plus some yummy silk. Both are variations on the Old Shale or
Feather and Fan patterns.

I'm so happy I'm not the only one that has spiders weaving their webs on my spinning wheels. Thnink maybe I should dust more?
I love the colors and pattern in your scarf.
Do either you or your husband fix older wheels? I have one like one you posted some time ago but can not get it to draw in.
Happy Thanksgiving
You are an amazing knitter, Grace.
If you could teach the spiders to dress the distaff with flax, then you would be on to something!
Your scarves are lovely, and so soft to the touch..beautiful work~
