Shock
This should really be an eloquent and poignant post, marking those new steps in the fiber world. However I just keep finding myself thinking nothing higher than-
OMG I got a WHEEL!!!
The wheel of my spinning dreams no less- a new Lendrum Double Treadle Complete. I didn't think I'd really get one, but thought if I did I wanted a wheel that could do just about anything and be all I need. Many thanks to Mr. Pieknits for being such an enabler. ;D
I have to say I feel I got a great deal too- check out the free fibery goodness.
Bountiful Fibers rocks my socks- great bonus package and it was here in 2 days!
Actually one fiber bag is missing from the photo, why? Because it's already spun up. Oooh fun stuff.
Right, ok that's all I got. It's Friday and I'm off to spin for the weekend, weeee!
(Random meme coming soon- random is still a step better than coherent though, so not there yet)

Congratulations! Welcome into the fold. I love spinning in the morning before work - it somehow centers me.
Can't wait to see what you spin.

Congrats on your wheel! Isnt the Lendrum awesome! I got mine from Bountiful too,, Lois is such a pleasure to deal with. Fiber looks yummy too. I opted for the free bag (pre-12-31-06 order),, but made up for it when I went to Maryland S & W. Enjoy your wheel!

Nice first bobbin! I wish mine looked that good when I spun on my wheel the first time!

Wonderful - I haven't tried a Lendrum but it looks lovely!

That is so cool!!! I'm on a loaner Lendrum, but I love it.
I want to do some spinning on it, and soon!! After the move. After the move. After the move.....
Jealously,

Congratulations! When I was a kid my dad got an old spinning wheel at a garage sale and I used to love it. Spinning is definitely on my list of stuff to learn. Have fun!
