A Drum Carder! A Drum Carder! I just can´t believe it!
After dancing headbanging through the house (my neck is hurting now) I started carding at once. Without thinking I put in what was there. After spinning, it will be a Happy Rainbow Yarn. I´m not sure about the amounts of fibers to put in. And with the thing you are supposed to get the fibers out of the big drum I have to be more careful, its very pointy. Trying to get the wool off the drum, it landed in my left hand. This is exactly the reason why I don´t like to knit, I´m afraid to hurt someone with the needles. Me for example.
Right after all the colours a long planned project was started. Like many other poeple these days, I read Stephenie Meyer´s Twilight - Books and I love them. So the next load on the Carder were fibers for a Werewolf - Yarn which will be followed tomorrow by fibers for a vampire yarn for Bella´s love, bloodsucker Edward. You´ll see....:-)
