Spinning:
I finished plying my Polwarth braid from Yarn Resuce (now Yarn Hero on Etsy)! I am so thrilled with it.
Then, I started spinning some punis from Naturally Knitty in the "Crazy Like a Fox!" colorway. The punis include Falkland, merino, Shetland, and targhee.
Pretty New Yarn (& Stuff)!:
1. Amazing, generous giveaway from Deb of Fondant Fibre. Go check out her amazing shop -- she sent me two project bags, fibre (a braid and two sets of punis), a skein of her DK weight yarn, stitch markers, and some of her knitter's soap. I purchased another braid of fibre (Whiteface Woodland) and some of her random Fuzzlings.

Book:
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, by Michael Chabon. I purchased it at a lovely bookshop on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, Crawford Doyle Booksellers.
Other Miscellaneous Mentions:
1. Folks! I have so loved our Post-Christmas Blues KAL. There's still a little time left -- the thread from which I will draw prizes will close on 29 February 2016 at 11:59pm CST. Also, many thanks to those lovely folks who donated prizes -- Rachel of Night Owl Fibers, Michelle of JibbyRoo Sews, and Regina of the Herbstblatt Regina podcast.

2. I was wearing my Bonny tank-top, which is one of my all-time favorite FOs. The link will take you to my Ravelry page (which features the poor-quality bathroom selfie I mentioned).
