I got this great little "do-it-like-its-colonial-times" spinning kit with a drop spindle while I was on vay-cay in rural PA. I spun the wool in the kit that same night, and ordered some more a week or so ago. Heres some photos of what Ive been spinning. |

This is some blue roving that I spun today into single ply yarn. Image 1 shows the roving separated out into pieces. Each one is about 12". Image 2 shows my work station. Notice my ingenious use of a candlestick holder. Image 3 shows the yarn partially spun and on the spindle (pretending to be a candlestick) and the last image shows the full amount of roving spun and on the spindle.
