"Her hands seize the distaff,
And her hands take hold of the spindle."
- Proverbs 31:19
So the footnote on this scripture notes, "The distaff and the spindle were sticks used to spin or make thread and yarn." Also, the accompanying scripture is Exodus 35:25 which states, "All the skilled women spun with their hands, and they brought what they had spun: blue thread, purple wool, scarlet material, and fine linen."
So apparently in Bible times, spinning thread was the Pinterest of today.
All the cool, skillful wives did it.
Today's Day 15 Challenge is:
Make a craft!
Find that mason jar that you meant to decorate.
Take up that bag of yarn.
Or go to Pinterest for some inspiration (just remember to COME BACK and DO the craft instead of getting stuck in the vortex that is Pinterest)
And show us some skillfulness, ladies!
