Short post right now, but I wanted to update people. :)
I finally got around to taking my birthday money, and ordering a Yarn Swift, like I said I was going to.
Like I said before, I've heard very good things about Hornshaw Wood Works, and so I decided to get a swift from there. It's a bit more expensive, but an umbrella swift just isn't an option, and I've always like supporting local crafters. Besides, I'd rather shell out more now then just have something that will break in a few years.
As usual, despite the Canadian and US dollars being almost at par, the exchange rate doesn't actually reflect that, but I've just come to a grudging acceptance of that.
It should arrive relatively soon, and I'll put it to work winding sock yarn from Stoddart Family Farms. (I got some of their yarn at the Toronto Knitter's Frolic, and I intend to get more at next years Frolic if they're there again.)
Otherwise, It's been a much less hectic knitting schedule now, so I'm just going to take some fun projects and wander out to knit night tonight after dinner.
