I had planned on spinning my purple roving first, but decided to start on some pink roving that I got from Grinny Possum Fiber Arts . 8 oz of very pretty pink roving Just getting started on sat July 4th Watching some old movies and spinning, itā€™s raining outside so good time to get some spinning done. Done with the pink roving, so pretty What to make with it???? Ideas? Now on to the purple and NCISā€¦. Iā€™m getting better at my spinning, Iā€™m able to get it thinner, do we all dream of spinning lace weight yarn?

Le Tour de Fleece 2009

Here is 8 oz of roving that I bought about a year ago at the Smoky Mountain Spinnery I bought it with the idea to spin some yarn for a shawl, I only had a spindle at the time, now I have a Lendrum wheel . I fell in love with this colorway and I bought it while we were sweaty and recovering from a long hike in the mountains. Here was my inspirationā€¦ If you spin check out the blog , ravelry groups and flicker groups. Even if you donā€™t spin there are some inspiring photos. May you spindles fly as fast as dragonflies Technorati Tags: Tour de fleece 2009 , spinning , fiber , yarn , spindles , smoky mountain spinnery
