Weaver, knitter, spinner, and other fiber artist. Happily married with 2 dogs and 1 cat.
I had a wild creative moment today. I just acquired a second (well, technically a 3rd.) treadle spinning wheel. The new spinning wheel got its own project basket. So it needed a lap cloth of its own. So I made one today!

I used Yakityyak’s tutorial to make it.

I have an awesome husband. We spent a good part of the morning working on my new to me Louet David III. It started out with multiple layers in the shed. The first step was where a couple of cords jumped off the pulleys. It was a matter of adjusting and tweaking.
I’m back to weaving.

Post groomed Huxley! He’s ready for the weather to warm up.

A pre-grooming picture of Huxley. He’s long haired and shaggy. Also has lots of mud up in his toes. He’s in desperate need of grooming.

Kokopelli is enjoying some time out in the living room while Huxley is getting groomed.

Staying inside on this cold day. Reading and listening to music.

Rosie refused to walk in the snow for the picture. She’s at my feet. Huxley is still cavorting and it’s still coming down. We’ve got about 2 inches so far.
