Spinning my wheels

After I bought the beautiful rainbow assortment of fiber last weekend, I decided that I'd better spin the rest of the brown wool. I bought this 4 or 5 years ago when I learned how to spin; it was one of two options at the local yarn store.

It spins quite nicely, actually, it's the only wool that I've come close to a long draw on. I have about 8 skeins of 2-ply yarn. I started with 2 pounds of it, so I should have plenty to make something like a sweater.

It's a project that I have watched my spinning change throughout. I tend to undertwist and underply, so there is some fluffy but fragile yarn in there.

Thanks, Hans, for taking the photo! You're hired!
