Marathon

Cinco de Mayo was a marathon day, started washing windows and screens on the house at first light, got 4 dye pots going, took care of all the 2 and 4 legged animals, then carded 3 different rovings. The lime green is Sunshine, the gray-brown is her triplet sister Midnight. Spun and plied the third roving, a brown BFL, from Midnight's son, Cocoa, with a little peach Cormo lamb for highlights,  from Jewell's daughter. These three are my favorite wools for knitting scarves, they spin up fast and knit easily on big needles, and are soft enough to wrap around your neck. I have to have these days to feel like I am accomplishing something, most days will come and go, but sometimes I can still get-r-done.
