The spindle came with a small cream-colored fiber sample, which I may use for the doggy rug. Speaking of which, it isn't growing much. That's because I'm spinning really thin singles (which takes a long time) and plying them Navajo style. I found these two instructional videos, one with a wheel and one with a spindle. Truth be told, my first attempts were so messy that I won't even make a picture, but they will in due course be incorporated into the rug.
At least my knitting was more succesful. Here's a picture of my finished socks:
I hope the weather improves, because even if it's warm enough for sandals, it's been raining a lot. I also managed to rescue the baby cardigan and completed both fronts.
It helps that I'm not reading while I knit anymore. My husband finally submitted his dissertation: a total of 332 pages. Whew!
