8:29 p.m. So much for updating this several times a day. Every week is a new week though! The work week ended well and then Bill set up the projector. We watched the first half of the movie Heat. I’m pretty sure I’d seen that in the theater and I’m amazed that I had the […]

At the end of this week, the great yarn dyeing experiment comes to an end. After an exhausting four and a half months, I’m leaving Lorna’s Laces.
