Ok so here goes

I am going to give an up date on what has went on for the past few days. As I have been MIA longer than usual. Ok I on Christmas morning I got up at abotu 5am to make sure that the girls Christmas Presents were laid out and when I went back to bed Anastasia heard me and so she started saying "its Christmas, its Christmas" over and over getting louder and louder so she woke up my DH and Shae and we had to have Christmas Morning at 5:30 am . I did get to go back to bed because my DH stayed up with the girls and let the watch There new movie Cinderilla and SO I got to sleep until about 11:30 lucky me, That never happens in my house. I did get a lot of spinning doen over the weekend also. I spun 4oz of Saphire Merino in singles and I really like the way it turned out so I do not plan on plying it . I also went ona dying spree after I went Shopping on Monday. I picked up a copy of The Twisted Sisters Sock Workbook and I found that it is great even if you are not spinning for socks the dying section is wonderful for any type of spining project. I dyed about 4oz of Superwash Wool with Cool-aid in Lime, Grape, Pink Lemonade, & Strawberry. I then spun in thin in a fingering weight single and I achieved a Barber Pole effect that I think I will call it "Candy Cane" My Girls think that this is a good name.

Isn't spinning fun? Your yarn looks great. You'll have to force yourself to knit something with it!
