Ease in life comes from simple tools that work well. I've found mine.

I've wanted a yarn swift for some time but have been stubborn about paying nearly $100 for something I "need desperately," would have to store, but would use infrequently. And then I found the simple version--an Amish style swift.

| This baby is truly SWIFT |
One quarter of the cost brought it right to my door. And the yummiest of Things I get to do today is try it out for the first time. Sweet!

| Not the best part, but close: storage is simple |
I'm in love already.
That looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteOh, baby! It certainly is!
DeleteI need to get one of those!
ReplyDeleteWell, just hold your horses, darlin'! I going to make one for each: you, Marcia and Karen. It may be a couple of weeks before I get to it, with spring planting and all, but you'll read about it in this blog. And then one will arrive in the mail!
DeleteSometimes simple is best, and a quarter of the cost!! Looks like it works well. The Amish are very inventive.
ReplyDeleteI love simple: 'Tis the gift to be simple. 'Tis the gift to be free," is the Shaker version of this thought.
Deleteoh andrea -- are you now Amish too? how exciting! i can't wait!!!! i didn't get a lot of knitting done while asta was here -- story i'll tell you privately, maybe -- but i can certainly use the swift!!!!
Deletelove, karen
Bet you had a great time with Asta. And I'm eager, too! Maybe I'll go buy the wood today after I get the green house full of seed babies.
