Productive today...

I have been spinning for about 6 hours straight--very therapeutic and niiiiiiiice after the long break I had from it.  Finished spinning about 6 oz of BFL lace and fingering weight singles, and plied those for 252 yards of sport-worsted weight yarn.  I also still have a significant amount on a bobbin, and I might Andean ply that.  This also needs to be dyed.  Green is my go-to color, but might branch out.  I want to try my hand at the Felicity hat.  This will involve learning to use DPNs.  I haven't knitted a hat before, seems like a good time to try.  With cool weather about 2 months off, yet.  Womp.

Also got a haircut today.  The hairdresser got a bit scissor-happy, and my hair is quite a bit shorter than I had envisioned.  It still looks cute....but short.  It will probably be the right length in 2 months and an inch.  At this moment, when the wind blows I can feel it on my scalp.  This is why I need a hat.  In case my scalp feels too naked.
