The Yarn Sink

I used the yarn sink for the first time this afternoon. I had half a pound of Cherry Tree Hill Roving that I spun and finished plying last night. There was plenty of room in the sink for all the yarn. To speed up getting hot water to the sink I started a load of hot water wash first.  There is some multi tasking that is good.  I like using soak when I wash my hand spun yarn. I will have to come up with another method of thwacking the yarn.  I am afraid it made the whole sink shake and I was worried that I might break the sink. Too bad they did not have a cast iron sink for a laundry sink.  Check with your local yarn shop or Raverly to get some Soak.

Today's Boo Boo's

The first picture is what I walked into this morning.
At least I was not home for the discovery of today's remodeling boo boo. It turns out that the kitchen counter to fo low to slide the dish washer in place.  I think I am getting really tired of a boo boo a day.  So the current count is 2 counters that need to be fixed.  However I am really excited that I now have a deadacated sink to wash yarn and fiber in.  

The shellfs also arrived for the craft room.  I wonder how full I can pack them? This means that the next phase of remodeling will start before the first phase is finished. I think I will just go along with the craziness for now.
