Today was a race around the Lac d’Annecy  in the individual time trial. I don’t have a lake here, and racing round our pond would be a bit tricky with the hedge in the way, so I settled for spinning like mad in the living room. I feel I gave even Alberto Contador a race for his money today with my spinning!

My bobbin of superwash bluefaced leicester is finished!

I think this is the fastest I have spun. I managed a whole bobbin in only 2 days. It is fairly fine too. Barring major disasters I should be able to finish this yarn before the end of the tour.

So, eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we ply! (ok I have been dying to say that for ages – apologies for the bad pun)
