Interrupt the doomscrolling for a minute? Spinning helps me calm down. Hard to believe someone as squishy-looking as I can contain as much rage as I do, but that's 2026 for you.

Weather perfect, but the crowds downtown were horrendous. And a big 🖕🏼 to the driver exciting the ferry terminal who almost hit me because he didn't think the red light applied to him 🤬
Oh the squid playground is open now by the #GreatWheel

Two bobbins, a full spindle and an empty box that held rolags the night before.
And then there were none.
Time to ply!

A skein of two-ply art yarn hangs on a spindle, two mostly full bobbins sit on the table next to a box of rolags yet-to-be-spun.
Update on #tourdefleece2025 goals! Have a chunk plyed, two bobbins 3/4 full and a handful of rolags left to spin.
I just might finish my goal!!!
My offspring is VERY excited to calculate yardage and the fond a crochet pattern!

Wooden board with knitting needles held vertically to hold bobbins for plying. In front, a handmade winder to transfer yarn singles onto a bobbin from a spindle. In the back are 4 baggies of separated roving ready for prepping.
#TourdeFleece2025 updates! Have finished the pre-prepped rolags, we are halfway done.
Today, I MacGyver-ed a bobbin winder dohicky and a bobbin holder from odds and ends! Onward to plying!

A bright blue, plastic whorl looks festive but also out-of-place on the spindle of an antique great wheel (aka "wool wheel," "walking wheel"). In the background are green houseplants and a harvesting knife.
The hub of the antique Pennsylvania great wheel. The original orange paint is complemented by a small wooden "toy" wheel, that has been painted blue and pressed onto the end of the axle in place of a missing retaining nut. In the background are the drivewheels of several other walking wheels.
The great wheel (GW) on a porch on a rainy day. It is parked next to a very similar GW and a couple other spinning wheels with large drivewheels and no treadles.
The wheel I picked up in Philadelphia 2 weeks ago. The rim has some cracks that could use stabilization, but it spins very nicely. The yarn stop is a spindle whorl, and so is my improvised axle retaining "nut."

The Great Wheel on the Seattle waterfront. The wheel is 175 feet high. Elliott Bay is blue. As is the sky over Puget Sound.

An antique spinning wheel from Pennsylvania. This is a Great Wheel, also called a wool wheel, walking wheel, or spindle wheel. It is a dark, natural wood color with jaunty orange stripes on the wheel and spindle posts, and the hub.
Detail of the spindle of the wheel. It's very long! At the moment, it is threaded through the maidens. I will make new corn husk bearings for it as I rehab this wheel. My dog is sleeping on the floor in the background.
Detail of the drivewheel. Ten spokes, and a wide rim of riven wood. This wheel is probably about 200 years old.
Whirlwind trip to Philadelphia and back. Main mission was picking up flax seed (accomplished!). Side quest: bought this beautiful antique PA great wheel. Now I'm collapsed on my couch, too tired to even start cleaning it.

An antique great wheel in a living room. Lots of houseplants and grow lights in the background. A blue heeler is sitting in front of the wheel, looking at the camera.
Drivewheel of the walking wheel. It is very dark and shiny with polish. The wooden rim is wide. It has ten spokes.
The spindle of the great wheel. One maiden and the spindle itself are of lighter colored wood. They are replacements of missing parts that were made about ten years ago. Bearings of braided corn husk hold the spindle in place between the maidens.
Spa day for antique spinning wheels continues. This one is a great wheel/wool wheel/walking wheel, and one of my favorites. I'm using a product called Daddy Van's to polish. It's just beeswax, carnuba, and olive oil.

A festive moment in Nottingham, December 2023. We can see a man standing alone in front of a truck selling sweets. It's a Christmas market square with lots of colorful lights and a Ferris wheel in the background.
A festive moment in Nottingham.
