So being all pleased with myself I was allowed to order some new roving:

This one is the real winner to me, loooove the colorway, hope it doesn't suck in real life!

Wow, you have been super busy. The colors are just beautiful! I can't wait to learn how to hand spin, but I haven't conquered dpn's yet!

Oooh, your yarn looks awesome! And you're tempting me with the roving pics!

Lovely roving, and nice spinning too!

Very tempting roving pictures. Must. spin. what. I've. got.

Yummy, Coopworth! Coopworth is one of the easiest fibers to spin. And such lovely colors. You'll have all this spun up pretty quickly, it's so easy!

And to think, what? Last week I was the one telling YOU how to put the damn thing together. Man that stuff looks good. I am so jealous. Really, really jealous. I think I need a real lesson. Seriously - you are on your way! It all looks wonderful!

I just bought some of this too. It had lots of VM and I'm wondering how did your spinning work out. Did you comb/card it before spinning?
