Spinner winner

It is official, spinning is a lifetime “go”. My criteria for lifetime crafts is if I can craft in the car on long trips. I tested spinning and plying on a recent trip and I can spin in the truck! Hurray!

Plying wool in the truck

It took a little creative problem solving, and I have to wrap the yarn around the spindle more often, but I can spin and A: not get sick and B:be productive. Nälbinding and crochet are also good car crafts. Knitting not so much; I drop too many stitches when we go over bumps. Wire work makes a mess of tiny bits of wire. Similar problem with carving (not to mention using sharp knives in a moving vehicle is not recommended). Leather work also uses sharp implements. Drawing, reading, embroidery, sewing, and cross stitch make me ill in the car. Yay for spinning!
