It's been a WEEK in what is turning out to be a MONTH! But on with the posting!

Day 12:

It was a nice day, so I washed 3 skeins of yarn:

[ID: 3 just-washed skeins of yarn in dark colors draped over hangers and hung out to dry on a porch beam. End ID]

Then I sat outside and wound another skein of yarn for washing; I tied this one better than the last few yarns skeins I tied for washing.

[ID: cool-colored variegated yarn, skeined for washing. End ID]

Day 13:

I started to wind a recently washed skein of yarn into a center pull ball. Unfortunately, I hadn't tied the skein well enough for washing, and it quickly turned into a tangled mess, and I had to start rolling the yarn into a ball from the other end, untangling as I went.

I got so frustrated by the yarn-winding tangle that I started another baby hat, just so that I could feel like I accomplished something!

Day 14:

I spent a couple of hours during our weekly ST viewing untangling and winding the messy tangle of yarn:

Day 15:

I tackled the messy skein once more:

Then, I finished the baby hat I started on Day 13 (note to self: knit tighter with one strand of #4 than you do with 2 strands of #3):

Day 16:

I finished detangling the messy skein!

Done with catch-up!
