you try first

Tuesday, March 15, 2011

Have you ever tried to spin? Well, I haven't. The whole thing intrigues and intimidates me all at the same time. Andrea's beautiful shop carries spinning kits, complete with very detailed directions and some really wonderful colors of wool roving. I do have a kit, just still a little intimidated to make some hand spun yarn. Studying these videos until I work up the nerve.

Would you like to give it a try? Well, Andrea would love to give away a kit to one of my readers. How nice!
I've been a little lax about showing our cookie of the week. Mostly because I keep repeating the same ones. However, last week and this week I made these. Crisp on the outside, chewy in the middle.
I doubled the cookie recipe and wrapped them for the week. One less thing to think about in the morning when you are packing lunches. Heck, if it were me, I'd just take the cookie and a water in my bag.
SO big they are hard to dunk, but that never stopped anyone.

Okay. Leave a comment by Thursday the 17th 12 pm EST if you would like to try your hand at spinning. (Just happened to see the hand on the shirt.)
Also, If you are looking for a pattern for something to knit, Olga is donating 85% of the sale of her patterns to help Japan, for the next couple of weeks.
Oh, and Sarah at Knot Another Hat is having her March Madness Sale.

  32. Hi leslie! don't enter me...I have no desire to learn. One more piece of equipment in my house and we won't be able to move. However, where did you find those wax bags. I've found bigger ones in target, but not small ones.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I have deliberately stayed away from spinning because I just knew I didn't need one more craft to pursue (I got a loom to learn weaving last Christmas and still haven't conquered that!) But this offer is too good to resist - what fun to try together! I hope you keep us posted on how it goes for you!!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Great giveaway! If I win, do I get some cookies too? Lol!

  49. I tried spinning when we took a class at the library. We made a spinning thing out of a computer cd. I hate to day it took a long time. I went to the fair & a lady told me it takes 40 hrs to spin a sweater. There's a mill that you can pay to have them spin your yarn. I said I don't have 40 hrs to spin. I'd rather buy my yarn. Kill joy!

    ReplyDelete
  50. I would love to learn to spin...do you think it would start another addiction? :o) Those cookies look wonderful, I'll have to give them a try!

  59. I have actually tried to spin. I took a very short one-hour class. I had a beautiful ashford spindle a friend gifted. I made one very small skein of yarn. And then my dh stepped on it. We epoxied it back together. A few months went by and I thought I would try again. As I was going through the wool (I have tons since I also felt), my daughter stumbled on the spindle hidden under some wool. It broke again. After about seven or eight months my dh epoxied it together again. But it is wonky and now it has been about four years since the class. I don't remember anything. I would love to learn again. The wee skein I did manage to make became a coffee cosy. I only had a few yards left :) It was very special to knit with.

    I wish you luck with your spinning!

  60. Just went to a guild festival for weaving and spinning. Maybe I need one of these, too? I would love to give it a try.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I've tried spinning with a drop spindle a couple times and it always ends in tears. Literally. But I haven't yet seen those videos you linked to, so maybe I'll try again with those.
    And that kit looks sooooooo lovely. Another problem with my attempts at spinning may be the extreme cheapness of the fiber.

  62. I would love to learn to spin, but I concur regarding the intimidation factor. Thanks for the cookie recipe, too. I wanted to make something different and there it was. Yeah.

  66. Me! Me! Me! I always wanted to learn to spin, and then someone gave me a bag of camel hair, and it stares at me! A kit might get me to the point of dealing with that bag.

  67. How funny! I initially thought you baked braided bread. Not so at all! Thanks for having friends in high places and for sharing with us.

  68. I believe this must be where the expression "spin a yarn" must have come from!

  167. The girls at my knit group have been trying to get me to spin and I must admit that I am tempted. Wouldn't it be great if I showed up with a spindle and some roving!!

    Spinning kit...just one more spinning experience to learn! I've spun a tale or two, spun the 38...I've even spun in the sun on a sandy beach! But, this adventure would just add to all the fun!

  170. Thanks for the opportunity to win and to read everyone else's comments. I think that a drop spindle is the way to go because it appears you could take it anywhere.

  179. I'm with you. Don't enter me in the contest because my husband bought a drop spindle and fiber and we couldn't figure it out. Lots of videos were watched but fiber just didn't magically transform into yarn for us. Lol. Best of luck to you!
