Proof that making friends on DU is a wicked good thing:
Edited on Sat Apr-18-09 05:52 PM by bicentennial_baby
A certain DUer, who shall remain nameless, knows that I'm planning on learning how to spin yarn. She asked me about it today on Facebook, because...

She wants to GIVE me her incredibly awesome Louet spinning wheel, plus fiber and accesories!!! :wow:

All I have to do is pay shipping and supply her with yarn in the future.

Can I just say O M G!!!!

I am blessed. :D

Be nice to other DUers. Make friends. You never know what you'll end up with. :)

Plus, a shout out to SallyMander for the box of yarn and needles she sent me last week! :bounce:

:hi:

Edit: She just shipped it! Squeeeeee!!!

1. AWESOME!!!
My grandmother-in-law use to spin her own yarn and it fascinated and relaxed me to watch her do it. May you find as much joy in it as she did.

Such an incredible gift! This secret DUer kicks serious ass.

6. And I want to learn how to form and stack my own GOLD BARS!
Just sayin', in case someone has the materials they aren't using any more.
