Habit is more powerful than will. If you get in the habit of painting every day, nothing will keep you from painting. (Irwin Greenberg)

plying Banana cream pie
I finally finished spinning the "Banana Cream Pie" Romney fiber that I bought a few months ago. It was spun on a 30 gram Turkish spindle and 3-plied on a 1 3/8 ounce top-whorl spindle,using the Navajo plying technique. Now I suppose I should start thinking about what to do with the yarn I have been spinning. It is still too thick and uneven for socks and not really soft enough for a hat so that eliminates my 2 favorite knitting projects. Maybe a little felted bag would work, something like the little entrelac bag from Interweave Knits.
