Bus trip to South Head

Had a very pleasant outing with the Historical Society to look at the alpacas at South Head  and then the museum at Helensville.  The fleece is delightfully light and silky and when spun makes a soft warm yarn  which they knit into garments. D bought me a pair of pale blue fingerless mittens  in a pretty lacy pattern.  Must get out my spinning wheel and spin some yarn  myself.  It has languished in a corner for 2 or 3 years now without having been used.  Watch this space.
