Inspired Morning


I wanted to drop by, and give you an update on the sweater I was unraveling.  I ended up with a dozen good-sized balls of wool yarn, which I began felting today.  They will eventually be dryer balls.  I mostly unraveled the sweater while sitting with Joseph on the couch at night. I'd say my first experiment in unraveling a sweater for yarn seemed like a worthwhile endeavor.  I forgot to weigh the yarn before beginning the felting process.  I suppose once the balls are good and dry, I can accurately weigh them to estimate yardage.

An old friend is visiting this week.  I have some workdays scheduled at a local pottery.  The first blooms of grape hyacinth were spotted today, and the pond is almost filled to the brim. Feelings of  inspiration and gratitude have filled my days. I hope the coming days bring you just what you need to feel inspired.
