I love my husband...even though he doesn't understand about yarn.
He made me a swift... see? Ain't she purdy? She needs a bit of oil and he mumbled something about a different piece of hardware (screw loose, dear?) but I think she's lovely. :-D
I tried to use her on my alpaca/silk for clapotis, but dh, bless his heart, didn't sand well and I think I need either varathane or oil... to prevent the precious yarn from hopeless entanglement, I performed a yarn-ectomy and re-hanked it for the time being. Ah well. Soon, my precious...
