Tour De Fleece has kept me busy.  I even brought my spindle with me to a trip so I could start spinning!

 

On my spindle which is customized with my name on top.  You can get one from here:  https://www.etsy.com/shop/HeavenlyHandspinning  I have Odds and Ends from Into the Whirled on the spindle.  I try to get two bundles done.  I'll be plying it on the mini spinner though.  It's hard to ply on a spindle.

On the mini spinner is Woolgathering.  It's 40/40/20 Merino/SW Merino/Silk and the color is the Adventure Club Jul 2013.

I also got some yarn today.  This is to re knit the too small felted slippers.  They were suppose to be for my Father-in-law's birthday (which is coming up soon).  Now I have to re knit and re felt them.

 



 

 

I couldn't stop myself from getting this special self striping yarn.  I have some but its an orange and pink.  They will become socks for me.

Tour De Fleece 2015!

Here is a picture of 3 of the braids I hope to spin.  It's a Loop Batt and then 2 JulieSpins braids.  The other two were already to go on the Mini Spinner and on the spindle.  Tour De Fleece will run Jul 4 to Jul 26.  I hope to spin at least 2 hours a day between the spindle and the spinner.

 

 



 

This was Day 1, Jul 4th.  I took my spindle with me when we went out of town to watch fireworks.  I got a couple of the little bundles of odds and ends done.  I plan to ply it with the Mini Spinner when its all spun up.  It's harder to ply on the spindle.  This is Into The Whirled bag of Odds and Ends.



 





 





 

This is my Day 2 Jul 5 so far.  I started my Woolgather July 2013 Adventure Club fiber.  I got a good start.  Back to spinning!
