Progression
Okay so I plied the first stuff I spun up;
And now I am taking a second go at it, to be more even. I was sloppy with the first stuff because I was just learning. I'm sure there is enough to make socks! This time around I am trying not to let it go too thin in spots, and to get a more even twist.
I'm so very in love with this fiber. I keep wanting to smoosh it in my face. I think I have gone over the edge. I am a spin-aholic. Send help.
Oh and just for fun, here is video of me spinning;

I love it that you love spinning so much! Nice to see your progress on your blog. Well done! What are you going to make from the yarn you've spun? Or do you plan on keeping it around to pet for a while?

Nice PJs - Love your spinning video. You are Mrs. Gadget Multimedia ;-) Can't wait to see you start the socks with the wonderful home-spun yarn! Have a great week!

The latest Cast-On!
Wow, you're really good on the drop spindle. I'm not quite so graceful (which is why I generally only spin on my wheel). =) The second video made me laugh. =)
