I received another parcel today – a skein holder that I won off of eBay. I’m something of an eBay addict, although I’m getting better \ud83d\ude42
\n\"skein
\nThat’s it! That’s also my Lisa G knitting bag in the background that Em bought me for christmas this year.
\nI bought a wool winder off eBay a month or so ago, and thought I could manage without a skein holder. The first skein I tried to wind proved how wrong I was. It took me 5 minutes to wind the yarn and an hour to untangle the mess I made.
\nHowever now I have discovered that the wool winder I bought is too small. It only winds a ball around 50g in size. As I have skeins of 100g, this is a problem. Easy solution – buy another wool winder!
\nDone!
\nI won another off eBay on Saturday \ud83d\ude42 I hope it’ll arrive tomorrow, but I probably won’t get it until Tuesday because of the holidays. I don’t need<\/b> it, I’m just impatient.
\nI’m also waiting on an order from Threadbear<\/a> I ordered the Plassard books, and some Papyrus to make one of the girl’s tanks for Em.
\nI just like to receive parcels in the mail \ud83d\ude42
\nI’ve made good progress on the blanket – one strip done and well into the second, and I cast on the front of the cleckheaton sweater, pictures tomorrow when I have better light.
\nIn unrelated news, I got my hair cut and coloured today. I have been seeing my hairdresser for around 8 years. She is a friend who works from home. She does a great job, is really inexpensive, and I love her.
\nShe’s retiring. I hate finding a new hairdresser. She very kindly wrote down the details of the colour she uses on my hair for my new hairdresser when I find one, but it just won’t be the same \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
