You can make spindles easily out of toy wheel dowel or old cd dowel. You need to be spinning a thin yarn for those to work well though :)

I am with Melissa- I know some people who sell the yarn for that, but otherwise it is not worth the time for the money (even if done on a machine)! They need to specify yarn size too- otherwise th...

There are scratches and a chunk bitten off from my door as testament to how little the cat likes being shut out of the bedroom. He will meow himself hoarse. Repeatedly. It's cute that...

Coasters, coffee cup, laptop, and a bowl with misc stuff live on the coffee table. Bare never seems to last.

There is a place like the Austin one in Seattle called Bike Works http://www.bikeworks.org/ that does non profit teaching and builds bikes. I got my bike the...

What part of it besides the fenders and racks are bamboo? Looks like the frame is steel not bamboo to me.

Puddle- Depends on manufacturing, but most of the new "high tech eco" fibers wear well. They are "green" because of what they originally come from, but after chemical processing they have mu...

Before or after my cat ate all the fish out of it?
