I am the worlds biggest klutz with the worlds worst luck. I tangled my warp, and in the process ended up sacrificing 60 ends of warp and a couple of skeins of rayon yarn. That was very sad, but at least I was able to salvage the other skeins and the rest of my warp.
So tonight, I was untangling and balling up the remaining hand-painted skeins. I just finished struggling with the purple, when I picked up the ball, and accidentally dropped it...
...into peanut's cup of water.
I knew the ball of yarn wouldnt dry up well in a ball form. I started to skein it back up so it would dry, when the middle of the ball came undone and proceeded to tangle itself with the rest of the wet yarn. Since it was wet, it didnt want to untangle. And since it was half skein, half ball...well there went another 200 yards of yarn.
Sigh.
I really had trouble keeping my language clean.
I think I need to just go to bed and try again tomorrow.

I'm pulling for ya!! This could clearly be one of those "safe space for bad ideas" happenings... however, it might also be a 'intentional mistake' which will allow for new insights, ya never know. I wish I could help.. do you need to go to Staples???
Oh Mel, I'm so sorry. I hope today is a better day.
