I am wanting to spin just so I can have some...of course, I don't have a wheel and I don't know how but I do have a drop spindle(?) so this winter hopefully I will give it a go. I would be no where without You Tube! LOL! I have one of those plants and always thought it was called a Smilax vine? I can't kill it which is wonderful and mine has bloomed several times but probably needs some fertilizer...poor thing. Those are definitely the same blooms and plant...so thank you! They root really easily in water too if you want to propagate it. You are really going to town with all your projects. Yoga...another thing I want to do....swimming not so much, ha! ha! Good for you and also look at those pickles! LOVE!!! You go girl!

The yarn blanket looks fab, I have this on my list and que in ravellry so whilst I am off next week it will be a mission of mine to finally start it off. Don't think I have ever seen a Hoya plant before but it looks stunning from what I can see. The flowers on it look delicate against the huge rich green of the leaves. It must be so satisfying to use your own handspun for a project, looking forward to seeing the finished shawl xxx faith76https://www.blogger.com/profile/14299750720092943526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717394370495529257.post-49002014640160707902016-10-23T12:26:00.306-07:002016-10-23T12:26:00.306-07:00Wow, I have to catch my breath just reading about ...Wow, I have to catch my breath just reading about your week!
