@Helical_Code I don't think you can go wrong with chicken and waffles. What time should we all show up? My stomach is already growling.
@Foxthorn 7 pm!
Also, I realized last night - while at the spinning wheel - that I haven't yet answered the question about what keeps a three-ply yarn together. I will, though!
@Helical_Code LOL leaving me alone with unanswered questions is risky. I have since gone down a rabbit hole and learned a lot about spindles and wheels and rigid heddle looms and different ply yarn and using homespun yarn for weaving..... #sodangerous
I do spindle spin, but not as much as before I got a wheel. I was using a top whorl drop spindle while waiting for the bus, and someone came up to me and said, "Is that motorized?" And I said, "No, it's just well-balanced."
I could see why he would have thought there was a motor - it was a Bosworth, and those are exceptionally well-balanced spindles.
@Helical_Code I am suddenly quite distressed that I missed out on this whole aspect of the Trailing of the Sheep Festival last time I was in Idaho. I got good pictures, but I completely missed the artistry....
@Helical_Code Our family in Sun Valley is currently in the process of relocating to Florida (yuck...don't ask me why) so our chances of returning to Idaho this year are slim. Also, the dogs make it hard to travel. I always say...my next dog will be travel size, and then my next dog ends up being another rescue with health issues that needs a good home that can afford the vet bills.
