    Such lovely spindles! Even though I just started to spin, I’m in danger of beginning a collection.

    Delicious! What’s the lovely knitted item you’re using for a background?

    Psst! It’s linum, rather than lindum. The spindle is named for the flax blossom. :)

    I’ve tried spinning on a spindle and just couldn’t get the hang of it. But they all are beautiful!
