    Monica, could you put a "reference" object (pencil or penny or something) in one of your finished yarn photographs so I could see just how fine your singles are before chain plying? I'm a big fan of the dogs and their antics, but you got me inspired to improve my spinning.

    I am obsessed with looking closely at N-ply right now since I just spun my 1st last week - I went to flickr and made your pics huge - you are an amazing spinner! I need some Spinach Souffle!

    I love those natural, woodsy colors! I'm using brighter versions of similar colors currently for a baby blanket for our future little one: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/sjn821/ten-stitch-blanket-2. The photo of Denny was a hoot!

    That looks like a dinosaur bone!

    Yum, spinach souffle. I have to say, your spun yarn is much prettier than the food version.

    That Denny is a hoot!!! Where on earth did you find a monster bone like that??? Mine won't touch rawhide bones anymore and I have no idea why.

    Beautiful spinning ~ the best way to enjoy spinach ;)

    Again, didn't think I'd like that fiber when spun up, but it's gorgeous! Love that.

    Denny and the bone... dogs are so awesome.
