"The winder works!" Tom bawled.

The new umbrella swift and ball winder came in today, along with the nostepinne. I'm going to have to take a picture of the latter - if I ever do proper Harry Potter cosplay, this thing will make a wonderful wand.

So now, after a veritable orgy of winding, I have all my hank yarn in flat balls. This will make working on the laceweight shawl much easier. Of course, now that I've wound everyhitng up and put the swift and winder away, I have one more skein of a different laceweight yarn coming in. But I'll deal with that when I get to it.

Glad something nice happened today.
