Itty Bitty Political Quiz!

So thanks to Janet of Chocolate and Raspberries, I took this quiz today. Turns out that I am a:

CENTRISTS espouse a "middle ground" regarding government
control of the economy and personal behavior. Depending on
the issue, they sometimes favor government intervention
and sometimes support individual freedom of choice.
Centrists pride themselves on keeping an open mind,
tend to oppose "political extremes," and emphasize what
they describe as "practical" solutions to problems.

So the big question is, do I go left or right as I age.....? My guess is that I would go left.

I know that I have been posting alot of political content lately, and I promise that we will get back to the regularly scheduled programming.

Therefore, some fiber content!

This weekend, I finished spinning the 2nd installment of the Cotton Project. The variegated blue and white stripe single is done, and the solid indigo cotton single is done, and now on to the white pima cotton. All will be plied together in the end as a 3 ply. I am hoping that I have lots of yardage, perhaps for the knitting of a cotton shell come spring.

On the knitting front, I cast on last night for a shawl done with some Artfibers yarn that I bought a few years ago, tied together the itty bitty balls and dyed the same colors. My idea is to knit it up changing the yarns and the stitch pattern as I go, giving a very organic feel. We shall see how it goes.....perhaps I may rip it out and knit up an antracite shawl with it instead. Who knows?
