Can it be?

Is there finally spinning going on?


Tour de Fleece started over a week ago. I started today.
Do you think I can catch up? How many hundreds of kilometers can I possibly be behind...


Goldie's fleece is a little fuzzy. I'm aiming for a 3-ply worsted weight, which means I'll probably end up with DK if I'm lucky. (And fingering, if I'm not.) I'm trying really hard to keep the singles bigger than my usual plyed yarn. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
I'd cross my own fingers, but it's so hard to spin that way...

    Whoo! Keep spinning woman, you'll catch up! I don't blame you for not wanting to spin last week with all that humidity.

    I love the black fibers mixed in with the white. It's going to be a beautiful yarn.

    You're doing great! I've decided that Shetland spins up fuzzy. That or I'm doing something wrong and it can't be that. ;^)

    I'd cross mine for you but as you know, I'm TDFing as well. Good luck with the thicker yarn. I really struggle to produce anything thicker than sport [ could be the deathgrip that my right hand has on the draft - I NEED to learn to spin relaxed ]
