SHE'S HEEERRREEEE :-D

I'm too lazy to upload pictures at the moment, but my new spinning wheel is here! She's all put together and adjusted to my liking. She's SO FAST. Maybe it's the fact that she's a double treadle, and I don't know how to go slow yet, but I like it. Boy oh boy, are we gonna have fun together!

Spent a bunch of money on Lurex tonight from a store in England, to add to my yarns. (One cone is GLOW IN THE MUHFUCKIN DARK. Is it can be Halloween tiem yet?!) Still gotta make the Etsy banner, a Pinterest, a Twitter, and a new Rav account, but I'm all tuckered out after putting Jane together (of course my second wheel has a name too, I'm not playing favorites here!) and playing with her. (Plied yarn I had spun on Borghildr on her.) Oh, also, I scored a Canon Powershot in perfect working condition on eBay last night for $25!!!!!!! Includes the SD card and case and free shipping. Fuck yeah eBay!

My dye order should be in on Thursday, and by then I should have my ten sweaters, at least some of which will be skeined and ready to dye immediately. (I have a good amount of yarn waiting already from sweaters I bought last summer. And RIT dye, ugh. I've got tons of RIT.) I decided to start off with buying ten sweaters, as I think that'll give me a good first batch of skeins. I can't wait to see what I find!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :-D
