The clocks moved 1h forward last night, and yes, Heike didn't notice until late afternoon today, when I was surprised to see that the movie I wanted to watch while spinning was already half-way over....SOOOO TYPICAL!! Well, I have now set all my clocks straight, and come October I will miss when they set the clocks 1h back again - same story every single year. It's useless to write it on the calender or anywhere else, because I will just forget about it...anyway...

 But to change the subject : I would like to show you my new TINKERBELL OOAK yarn design I finished 2 days ago, and it's now displayed in my Etsy shop. It's made from some of my handpainted cosy cosy Bluefaced Leicester wool - OF COURSE :o)

Well what can I say, the BFL is simply one of the best wool fibers to work with, I never get tired of spinning that wool, honestly. I finished this lot between 2 custom orders I am currently working on (pictures to come soon), and I received another custom order tonight for 400g of dark grey pure Alpaca yarn - yummy soft and gorgeous!!! So this Bluefaced Leicester wool is so handy for changing fibers for a short while and to see some different colours as well.

I have also mordanted another 1 kg of extrasoft Merino wool for handpainting - if the weather is good tomorrow I may be able to paint it outside - hmmmm, I think I  know what colour schemes I will use :o) ... be surprised!

Everyone, have a very good Sunday!
