Jen got a big package in the mail yesterday and look what was in it!!!! A minkee playground!!!!! Well actually, she got a yarn baller and umbrella swift, but we are using it to play! (Thanks for the B-Day present mom and pop)

Right here we are playing on the swift, it holds the yarn waiting to be spun into a ball. Jen was getting pretty pissed off at us because we kept throwing her spin off, so we got down for a couple minutes.

You spin the yarn on that little thing. There is a little crank off to the side.
Bernardo was quite helpful, he even spun a whole ball all by himself. Kiss ass!

He was so proud of himself that he posed for this little photo. He thinks he's the bee's knees but I know the truth. He's just your everyday cheeky
minkee just like me.

For me, I got a little stuck. I asked Jen to spin me around a couple of times. It was a lot of fun and that thing can go fast. Only problem.....I kinda got a little sick on the yarn. Sorry, I thought it would be fun. You can't be mad at me, look how cute I am!

Wow! That thing is too cool. I'm going to have to get a lot better at knitting so I can justify buying one of those.
Monkey Q&A: When my daughter was little, we called Lucky Charms "Monkey Germs". What are your thoughts on that?
LOL! You guys so needed a playground.
Yer killin' me! LOL...
I love this blog and the Minkees.
You are now officially on my "exclusive" blog list ;-)
Quick question ... I saw the remote control sitting in the middle of all the knitting supplies. What is up with that? And don't tell me that you are watching re-runs of Corey on Hell's Kitchen. I want the real scoop.
So cute...have to be honest, I've never heart of a yarn baller...now that I think of it, it must come in really handy!
It really comes in handy if you buy hanks of yarn. I love it. Hard to yeild, but I'll get the hang of it.
Do you spin your own yarn? I ask because I am getting some alpaca's and I don't know the first thing about the fleece. Happy Friday!
OMG! I'm jealous! SO jealous of the winder and swift! I bet there will be hours of minkee enjoyment!
