some things are too good to resist. so yes. i bought something. how delicious is this indigo dyed wool from laura at indigo night owl??? laura is a mom and it amazes me how she does all this wonderful stuff at home with kids. her energy and focus astounds me. i spotted her dyeing wool on flickr and begged her to share some of this with me. now i have to dig out my drop spindle because i want to work with this stuff nice and slow..... and then do some slow weaving with it. the weather is cooling down and its time to work with some warmer fiber.
...and speaking about spinning, a friend picked up this wheel which has some missing parts and she was wondering if anyone , (maybe laura?) can identify the make of this wheel or whether anyone knows if the parts are replaceable and if this wheel is fully functional? i don't know much about wheels, i spin mostly by the drop method. your help is appreciated.
