I didn't have a lot of money for my trip to SAFF this year, but I did buy a couple spinning things.
A pretty, buttery yellow sweatshirt, that says, "I Spin to Knit".
Here I am wearing it (I couldn't smile, because I was exhausted after SAFF):
And another 8 ounces of beautiful "English Garden" roving from "Shepherd's Corner". I already have 8 ounces in the same color, which I bought last year. Now, I have a pound! :D
I also bought some yarn for knitting, a pattern book, and a bar of handmade soap for sensitive skin. Here's my total haul this year:
I'm known as a knitter, spinner, needleworker, singer, pianist, organist, church musician, eBayer, and generally crazy person! I am "Shandeh" in the Knitting Help Forum. (www.knittinghelp.com) Come and glimpse the life of a southern American in North Carolina.

More Roses
I still haven't spun a thing. I'm a BAD spinner. I've mostly been knitting and sewing lately, but that will soon change. I'm going to SAFF in a couple weeks!!! (Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair in the mountains of North Carolina.) I'm sure that seeing all that fiber and handspun yarn will light a fire under me. I'm so EXCITED!!!!
Last night, my hubby walked in the door with a dozen roses for me. He's in the dog house right now. I'm still pondering whether to let him out or not. ;)
