So, I have come a long way since I started spinning at the end of March. It's been grand fun. I need to document my drop spindle work better, but that was mostly my activity to burn off nervous energy while we were in the middle of the move, so wasn't interested in the whole take pictures thing. Then not that long ago, [livejournal.com profile] asciikitty brought home a wheel for me to use, and that's been a challenge. The tension was Not Good and it needed oiling, but a few days ago she was kind enough to tune it up, and I've done nothing-but every evening since (in fact, what am I doing jawing here when there's fiber to spin and ply?!)


Here is a sample of my first spindle of yarn:           Here is the plied yarn I made on my spinning wheel from last night:
