We got up early and made pancakes before heading to a class out in rural Baltimore County to learn how to felt.
Why are these classes always at lunch time? The class was great though; the instructor was really through and demonstrated everything. It was just us and one other woman (who also masked! She’s a biology student in a Masters program) and we all had a lot of interests and had a good time talking and felting.
We all made candle sticks out of wool. The instructor even made us cookies, I brought one home and had it as dessert.
We didn’t really have lunch so we picked up dinner at our favorite pit beef place, also way out in the county. We got pit turkey and then pulled pork with rolls on the side to have tomorrow for lunch after our knitting class in an even more far off area. The idea had been to get lunch in that city after the class and make a day of it but nothing really seems to be open on Sundays, even places that were open when we booked the class. Anyway, we figured we’d be really hungry by the end of the class and stopping closer to home would probably take longer than just coming here and heating up the pork. Of course, we could change our mind and have the pork some other time but at least we have the option.
We were so tired and ended up taking an early evening nap after dinner! I don’t think either of us slept more than five hours last night. Dottie really likes to wake with the sun.
We made a batt for Tour de Fleece and wound some yarn so we can get back to our knitting project book. We have been busy with other projects and stopped for a while.
