I'm sure you remembered that today was St. Distaff's Day - ignore your French calendar which tells which saint is celebrated today . . . whoever heard of St Raymond? (Apologies to all the Raymonds reading this).
Tammy (my next door neighbour) and I did our best and gave our spinning wheels some exercise this afternoon.
I was spinning some of my Maco Merinos fleece which has to magically transform into a baby blanket before the end of January (some hope!!) and Tammy was spinning for a woven bag she's making.
Then Jak decided to get in on the act! (There's no show without punch!)

She won't do it right unless I watch very carefully!
So, that's it until next year. Thankfully, there were no traditional pranks such as setting fire to our wool or flax, so I think we escaped pretty lightly!
