Tour De Fleece 09 update

I had planned on spinning my purple roving first, but decided to start on some pink roving that I got from Grinny Possum Fiber Arts . 8 oz of very pretty pink roving Just getting started on sat July 4th Watching some old movies and spinning, it’s raining outside so good time to get some spinning done. Done with the pink roving, so pretty What to make with it???? Ideas? Now on to the purple and NCIS…. I’m getting better at my spinning, I’m able to get it thinner, do we all dream of spinning lace weight yarn?

Le Tour de Fleece 2009

Here is 8 oz of roving that I bought about a year ago at the Smoky Mountain Spinnery I bought it with the idea to spin some yarn for a shawl, I only had a spindle at the time, now I have a Lendrum wheel . I fell in love with this colorway and I bought it while we were sweaty and recovering from a long hike in the mountains. Here was my inspiration… If you spin check out the blog , ravelry groups and flicker groups. Even if you don’t spin there are some inspiring photos. May you spindles fly as fast as dragonflies Technorati Tags: Tour de fleece 2009 , spinning , fiber , yarn , spindles , smoky mountain spinnery
