Spinning Progress Report

Even though there have been plenty of moments where I felt like my learning curve was spinning in place (sorry, I couldn't help it!), I can finally see some progress.

Attempt 1


Attempt 2


Attempt 3


All together now!


I've been trying to spin for a couple of hours each day. The hardest part is getting the yarn thickness uniform, but it's sloooooowly becoming easier.

I have enough yarn now for another felted purse, so into the dye pot these go! My MIL painted this lovely picture of my favorite do-hogs, so I want to give this purse to her when I'm done.

    you can really see how the uniformity of the yarn thickness is improving! and what colors are you going to dye the yarn for the next felted bag?
    i see variegated purples? or are you goign to mix in some black cherry or regulary cherry? :o)

    I can see a lot of progress in your spinning!

    I love the painting of your dogs. It's wonderful. I hope you have it hanging on your wall.
