I was on overload from my day job but wanted to have my fingers in fiber at the end of the day without the structure of knitting. The thing that changed my life about spinning with a spinning wheel was learning to spin from the fold. Have you tried that? I can control the drafting and I didn't feel like the wheel was controlling me. With so much pretty yarn in the world, I did not understand the desire to spin yarn until a year ago.

This is how I'm feeling about weaving....it will keep my brain active for the rest of my hopefully very long life. But in case it doesn't, I might just have to try spinning at some point. In the meantime, I will enjoy it vicariously through you. There you go. This is how I’m feeling about weaving….it will keep my brain active for the rest of my hopefully very long life.
