T Stands for Tuesday-Still Spinning

 Good morning, those of you that have had wintry weather and/or flooding hopefully all of you came through ok We had a nice break on Sunday with the weather that warmed up enough to finish melting off the ice and snow.  One thing nice about this area of Missouri-most all of the time it will melt away before the next wintry event comes in.  Mid week though we will be bitter cold with more snow and ice.

  Tuesday is time for T with our hostess Bleubeard and Elizabeth. You are most welcome to join us with your post-only requirement is to post a drink related photo.

   I have been doing allot of hand spinning the last several days. My goal was to finish spinning that blue fiber which I did and on to the next that I shared last week. I have been sticking with this and am almost finished. I should finish today or tomorrow. This is the best of my spinning so far-still not totally perfect but will weave up nicely.

  This first photo has my cup of decaf coffee with cream

  The skein on the niddy noddy is now filled up and the yarn is getting set as I type-I spray it down with water and let dry twice.  I am now filling up the third skein.

Next up in spinning are my beautiful rovings that I bought inspired by the colors in Yellowstone.

  The top skein that says hand painted top I purchased at a shop in West Yellowstone in May 2017-wow it's been 3 years ago and I still miss Yellowstone-
  This was local roving that was also hand dyed.
The other rovings I purchased from different vendors at Fiber U in 2017 and 2018 Last year I was good and did not buy anything at Fiber U

    These fibers are so beautiful, This collection may need a little more in browns added, and perhaps a little yellow for the aspens.

  One evening last week when we were really cold I made us some hot chocolate. Hubs just wanted a small cup so I put the rest in a big mug

I decided mine need some whipped cream too  😀

  The sky was pretty last week as well

and the gorgeous snow moon over the lake-this photo did not do this amazing view justice when I took the photo it was still light-pretty blue sky and water with this very bright full moon

Happy T everyone

PS Valerie asked what a niddy noddy was--after you spin your yarn either on to the bobbin of a spinning wheel or on a drop spindle-you take it off and wind it on to this niddy noddy. get the yarn wet and let dry-it sets the twist and then can take off and make into a skein or use a ball winder-to make into a ball of yarn
   New wooden niddy noddy's are quite expensive so I did make myself two small ones but then found these plastic ones that come apart that were made from pvc pipe-I really like these-one could make their own but liked that she had colors to choose from and I am not good with tools haha I bought two of them

Also I decided to go back to answering your comments here under yours.
     Some of you still like to converse back and forth with personal emails which I always loved and really enjoyed in the past-but most of you don't do that anymore.  and I also know many of you don't have the time to go back and read a response and I totally understand that as well-but I know some of you may.
   I know a couple of us in the T group answer under comments and I do go back and check for the response. Feels like I am interacting with my friends more this way.
    Just so you know
