No knitting has occurred chez moi.
The yarn for my mittens is dry. With any luck at all I can finish at least one pair of mittens this weekend.  Of course that is what I said last week. 
I have decided to attempt reeling silk.  I have ordered cocoons and begun a list of necessary equipment. I have found a partner in crime.  I am all set!  Now we just have to get our supplies together and find a day we are both available.
I have learned through my research that reeling results in a certain amount of reeled silk and a roughly equivalent quantity of spinning silk.  I think I will attempt to dye it, mix it with wool and spin it for either embroidery or knitting.  In my copious free time. 
And this is why I get so little done.
