We Got Spunky

Yesterday, we went up to the grand opening of the Spunky Eclectic shop in Lisbon, ME. I sorta knew in the back of my head that this was going to be a spending trip... and it was... believe me it was. I got so much nifty stuff!

Then there was the BIG purchase... The wheel. I ended up with a Fricke S-160-F-ST. It's a full sized wheel that folds up. I was kinda surprised that's what I ended up with... I had been sure that what I wanted was a Louet S10DT, but after I went through and tried all the wheels she had in stock, I liked the Fricke the best. Even Matt went through and tried them (he's getting the hang of spinning) and he liked he Fricke the best too... So that's what we brought home.
