What a day for hanging your wool yarn outside
I washed and whacked the yarn for Ma's sweater and hung it out on the clothesline. Today is gorgeous.

7 Days - Day 4 (Progress)
It's not a sweater yet, but it will be. I'm spinning the wool on the right into the yarn on the left. By hand, because I believe that spinning wheels are overpriced unless they're given to me as gifts. Near the top of the basket, you can see the spindle I'm using. I've been doing this for a little over a year, off and on, with several long breaks. The finished sweater will go to my mom.
