Stressing

I'm stressed to the limit right now, thanks to my attempts at living a life outside of fiberart (what the heck was I thinking), but a couple of things have made it a little easier:

- Forrester Akha in Maple and Olivewood. I bought a Kokovoko akha, and while it's probably a little more authentic, the Forrester is so much easier to use, because I'm not an Akha tribeswoman and the teeny weeny notch in the top of the Kokovoko is way too advanced for me. The Forrester has a nice, big cup hook.

- Golding ringspindle. It's a beautiful spindle for sure, but for some reason I was expecting something a little grander. I'm sure I'll get over it.

- I went to the Ravenswood winery this weekend and bought a wine chiller that is the perfect size to hold all my nicer spindles. I'm very happy about that.
