I ordered some roving from Daniel over at
No No Kitty Yarns when she had her first sale for closing up shop back in December. I had asked her to wait until after the holidays to send it as I would be out of town and didn't want the package sitting outside for days. I e-mailed her earlier this week, checking in on the order, because it dawned on me that I didn't tell her when I'd be back. Turns out we both forgot, and she sent it out right away:
You're probably thinking, "Roving? You just started knitting seriously just before Halloween, surely you don't know how to spin already?" And you'd be right. Nope, dunno how to spin. Do I want to try? Yeah, I do now. Will it be any time soon? Nope, probably not. Am I worried? Nope. I like to just look at this stuff and touch it and pet it, and yes, I shall call it George.

Gorgeous roving! I'm Jealous. :-)
beautiful colored roving! Those stitchmarkers are very nice too! Enjoy them...oh yeah, can't wait to see your spun roving...or is it called...yarn??? hehe zknitter
Pretty roving, pretty stitch markers. George seems like the type who will wait till you're ready to make a commitment.
George is gorgeous, I'd definitley just sit and stroke it too.
I know someone who doen't even knit tht took up spinning recently. She's really good at it. Hope yours goes just as well.
Drool!!!
(And what is that "I shall call it George" line from...my husband is constantly quoting it!)
Bezzie I feel like I've been quoting that far longer than it's probably been around, but I believe it's from Animaniacs. The little red-headed brat girl said it every time she came across a new furry animal she wanted to keep as a pet. It greatly amused me.
