Yesterday I managed to hit two things off my to do list.
The first was to finish reading "Making it So" by Sir Patrick Stewart. Very nice and dense book about his entire life. I learned so much about him and his motivations for things it was neat...but long.
The second thing I finished was the calligraphy on the scroll for Ritchard's Court Barony. I will be getting it flattened and then mounted for sending to him at Fabric War. I'm most decidedly chuffed with its outcome. I will post pictures when I know he's received it.
I also down to two bumps of fiber and I hope I can get the spinning done tonight. Then I can see when I want to ply it....it might be a while since there is so many yards on that bobbin cause its so thin. This is a bit over 3 ounces on the bobbin 3 ounces on the bobbin of laceweight. I'm please but oof that has been a slog. Looking back at my photos I saw the meriona/sparkle that I did last July is just as thin. I almost want to ply them together but I'm not sure. I will determine later. I do have some fiber to go through and figure out what is next to spin.
So the next two things on my list to get done before we leave up north is to get my fabric stash purged for fabric war. (Willa will also be running my table for that). And before we leave I'm going to purge clothes and try to hit the mending pile to clear it. I have a lot of clothes I just need to chuck that don't fit, I hate or I just don't wear and they need to go...including the undies drawer.
Today I also head back to the gym for some light weight training and a good walk.
Book I started reading is #23 "The Butchering Art" by Lindsey Fitzharris which is about the art of medical things in victorian era and how the technology changed the landscape. The first chapter was about the use of ether in surgery and now we are hearing about Joseph Lister. Heard about this on the Stuff You Missed in History class podcast ang I got it for xmas a few years ago. So fun historical read.
