\nHad a great time at Turtlegirl76’s<\/a> place today with at an informal spinning session. We continued to spin up what we had on our bobbins, tried out a silk hanky with uneven results, and Illiane was kind enough to share some absolutely gorgeous black alpaca with us. We also used Turtlegirl’s scale to measure out fiber. I really need to get one of those.
\n<\/a>
\nThere was also, of course, knitting. I swatched the red I’ve been spinning on size 0 needles. It looks like it’s too tight, so I’ll do another piece on size 1’s. A pic will be posted it’s done. I’m feeling good about this as a sock yarn. Down side: I’m getting sick of spinning it.<\/p>\n

Emily continues to have adventures in language.<\/p>\n

After jumping up and down a lot: “I’m out of my breath! How can I get some more breath?”<\/i><\/p>\n

An exchange between her dolls. “You’re something else!” “What am I?” “No, I just said that. You’re not really something else.”<\/i> Interesting because it indicates how literal she generally is, but that she recognizes that sometimes people say things that just don’t make sense, like “You’re something else.”<\/p>\n

We’ve had lots of fun playing today, all three of us. Steve and I are looking forward to seeing Pirates tomorrow while Emily has a good time at Grandma’s. Yay!
