Wow over a month since my last post, shame on me!!! But I have been very busy this past month. I finished my
Bristow sweater, done in my
wildberry hand spun. Sorry no pics, have to get someone to take some, maybe tomorrow. And lots of spinning!!! I am doing the tour
de fleece on Team Suck Less on
Ravelry. Yesterday Lisa, aka
TsockTsarina, and I spun our mile. At least I think mine is a mile, if not exactly the extremely close to it!! We spun for
almost 9 hours, with breaks but still
that's alot of spinning. But it was beautiful out and all in all an very nice day. The buddy system really is great, we kept each other going and entertained. That was when Luke, her
cocker spaniel,
wasn't entertaining us!! What a wonderful dog!! He is really a sweetie and very well behaved I might add. In fact here he is.... He was guarding the door way to the sun room so no one could get to Lisa and I. Namely my hubby, he was making sure no one disturbed us!!
He was so good all day, just watching us spin, must have been very boring for him. And here is my spinning for the day. Its a wool silk blend and it is about 44
wpi, that is the
thinnest I have ever spun.
Over all I am quite happy with it. The colors are just like a peacocks tail feathers. I have a pound of this stuff
soooo, I will be spinning for a while!! That is all for now, back to spinning. Oh and this is what I did for the beginning of the
TDF
That is a mohair blend, not sure of the yardage or the
wpi but that is 4 ply baby!!! Oh yes I am sucking less at spinning!!
