I was going to post a picture of Ellie with a big, ol' frozen beef rib in her mouth, but yesterday's post was probably enough to keep everyone's imagination busy for a while (oh, maybe it was only Sandy who was lucky enough to hear the story about the head!). Ellie did look very cute and serious about the delicious bone that she enjoyed this evening but the batteries in my camera were dead and I was unable to capture the moment.

The last time that I spun Persimmon Tree roving, I over-manipulated it and ended up with two very large and uninspired looking gray skeins of yarn. I'm trying to use a very light touch with this roving - hoping to keep the colors more distinct and interesting. What I did was pre-draft the roving to the point where there is almost no drafting to do during the spinning process. I'm mostly just adding twist. So far, so good!
