You know what, I haven't done a lick of spinning today. Not one drop spindle, not a handful of fibre, nothing. I hope to remedy that later tonight, but for now, here's a photo of some tablet weaving I've been playing with.
Sorry, that's not handspun either. But it's looking rather fine if I may say so myself.
I'm really surprised how much I like tablet weaving. It's very portable and very satisfying. I made my tablets from an old deck of playing cards. The shuttle I made by cutting out some cards and gluing them together. Of course, I couldn't find my glue, if I ever had any, so I boiled up some flour, sugar and water and made a very efficient glue.
Now to finally watch Sky Fall (the latest james bond film). It's nice of the library to replace the video rental stores, but the wait list... oof. *slowly shakes head in dismay*
