Hallelujah!
Long story short: I went to the fiber revival. Stayed with a great friend who has yarn and fiber all over the house and wool wash in the shower right next to the shampoo. Bought a little. Chatted a bit. Met some lovely people. Ran into other lovely people that I already knew and loved. Got to see a good friend who made the trip just to see me for 2 hours. Took a good class sitting next to une nouvelle amie. Etherknitter Laurie and Two Left Needles Monica helped me trouble shoot a squeak in my wheel and then Seed Stitch Cheryl helped me fix a problem I was having with my tension knob. I am now set to fall in love with my wheel. I just need a little spinning time. Want photos?

The circle got bigger and bigger

That is a GREAT summary picture. Tadpole pegged the cute-o-meter running around in her sweater with that sweet smile. I didn't know she was already a spinner :)
It was a fun day. I'm glad you came.

Echoing the others, I love the picture of the mama & daughter feet. It was so good to catch up with you while you were in town. I hope Tadpole and L4 will be able to meet someday.

That sounds like such a wonderful time! And the pic of your feet(s) treadling together? Just perfect...

It was a perfect day and am so glad you were able to make it. Our spinning class was great fun :-) I too had my wheel tweaked by the same crew. It would appear we have a few things in common!

Oh, that just looks like the most perfectest New England summer day...

I so wish I could have been there. It looks like an absolutely idyllic day. Tadpole's feet next to yours are just too cute!

That picture is so beautiful - the house, the circle, the spinners. What a lovely time! What great people!

I so hope you fall in love with your wheel now, you'll have to let me know how it goes. And I'm so glad you came down for the weekend, it was great to see you!

What an amazing gathering of people and such a beautiful setting too.

It's so wonderful when friends can meet up and spin, knit together! Tadpole is going to be a fabulous spinner/knitter. ;-)

It was great to meet you! Hopefully, we'll both get to hang out a bit more next time. OO! You should got to Spa! Are you?

Now I'm bummed I couldn't make it. I was holding it in check, but tadpole's little feet pushed me over the edge into pure envy.

Gosh, that looks like fun.
Tiny treadling feet...ow, my uterus just flipped...
