Today was the first day of the season for a historical home in Rhode Island. With a constant drizzle of rain, nine spinners, myself included, sat with our wheels in the tobacco mill and talked about making yarn. Johnnycakes, hot dogs, coffee, and lemonade were available to keep us full and warm. Flowers and some beautiful beaded items and jewelry were available to buy or just look at.
I managed to almost finish spinning the last of my Merino/Bamboo from FatCatKnits. Plans were to spin the last half ounce tonight, but, it didn't happen. I'll do it tomorrow night and start the plying as well.
Here are some pics of the grounds of the Museum. The first two are of the pond. The waters are still high from the recent Flood of 2010.
These two pictures are where you can usually see the fish swimming. Not so today.
Here's the view from the walking bridge and a shot of the waterwheel from the front.
