Summer fun

From this




To this


And this


Eventually it will look like this

Isn't it pretty? I finally plucked up the courage to wind one of my hanks of yarn into a nice ball. Did it all by hand, it took a total of two nights. Now I know how handy a swift can be...need to get someone to fix the old swift that's been lying in our basement for years. It works fine, just need the part that holds it open repaired. DOn't think I'll bother thinking about a ball winder just yet. I just wrapped the yarn around my thumb, and that worked just fine!
