I have gotten much quicker with the spinning. I think I need a bit of work on my plying, but I suppose it will get there. Here is my first skein, the green one. The lighter green was a bit thick,the darker one was when I started getting the hang of it.
I then moved on the the rest of whatever merino tops I had laying around, and combined a bunch of colurs to make this pinky/red skein. I think it looks pretty good, though still need a bit of practice. I guess I know what I have to buy this week, my own wheel!
I am really pleased with the result considering that I hated spinning after I took the class a month ago. Once you get the hang of it, it is very relaxing. My family thinks I am crazy, but whatever.
My other project this week was this flower, how cute is this. I still have to make the leaves for it, that will be next.
