We walked to a restaurant a few blocks away, where Natalie spun while our meal was prepared.
Before yesterday, I had little interest in spinning (I won't get into my husband's derogatory remarks about "medieval arts"). Now, I'm completely entranced and off to buy a copy of "Respect the Spindle" by Abby Franquemont. Natalie told me that there is now a video version available in addition to the book.

Later, Natalie knitted on a shawl while we chatted.
Again, I was wowed. I'm challenged by knitting anything more complicated than a Baktus scarf while talking.
We checked out my stash when we got back to the house. Natalie admits that currently, she has a thing for gold-coloured yarn. She'd already checked out my Ravelry page and knew I favour neutrals when she presented me with this.
