My left thumb joint has been bothering me, so I’ve let it rest. I did start a pair of cotton socks. I did the heel on the first one today.

The big news is a couple of hours of spinning! Last time I tried the Country Craftsman, it kept throwing the drive belt. I figured it was time to sort it out. But no problems at all! I just kept going. This is some Polworth from Inglenook Fibers, colorway Earl Grey. Really happy as I have a lot of fiber to spin. And spinning didn’t bother my hand.

The last is what I’ve been doing intead of fiber. I’ve been taking Liz Steel’s sketching/watercolor classes. She’s a good teacher and I am enjoyimg it. I’m getting better at drawing things on my kitchen table but still working on outside sketches. Here’s mine from tonight:

That’s it for now!
