Hello. My Name Is...
Lennie
Thank you all so very much for all the wonderful names you suggested. It took me a really long time to choose (obviously). I made a list of all the names and read them as I was sitting at my wheel - I wasn't actually spinning, just considering, because goodness knows I certainly can't do anything else while I try to spin. But, when I started spinning, it seemed like he was just a Lennie. Lennie is after all a simple wheel made of good solid Canadian maple. A simple name just seems to fit. So, thank you to Angela for suggesting it.
Angela is on a bit of a yarn diet, and she's being really good (she has way more willpower than I do, I can tell you that). So, of course she must have yarn as her prize for picking the name. And since I'm in love with Sundara Yarn, she's getting some sock yarn. I have to choose the color, but then it will be on it's way to Angela.
Today is finally Friday, and I'm really ready for the weekend. I'm hoping that this weekend and next week will be a bit slower because it's about time.

Lennie is a great name! I haven't even named mine and I will have owned it for a yearn in a few months - yikes! Of course it came with a name but I don't think it is fitting, but I haven't come up with anything better yet...

Lennie makes perfect sense to me. My Lendrum is named Lenny with a "y.' :-)

What a perfect name, Lennie will be making you some beautiful yarn to show off in no time flat!
I hope you weekend is quiet, peaceful, relaxful, and fibery.

First, you KNOW how I feel about naming things like wheels and cars and tools...we won't go there. But, even I have to admit it's a perfect name. Now, I just hope it is short for "Leonora", because you do realize that spinning wheels are feminine, don't you. I won't go there, either! Want to see more yarn!
