Spinning and project planning

REMINDER!! I am a very novice spinner, at least on a wheel.



This is what is on the wheel. It is store bought fibre, but it is so yummy and I just LOVE the colour(s)! I am hoping to get this done soon so I can get some home grown Shetland on the wheel. I have a lovely Shaela fleece just begging to get out of the bag.

























This is what I want to make out of the homespun once it is finished! I would like to get it finished before this years Fibre Week at Olds College. I am hoping I can schedule a trip to the Black Sheep Gathering in June, but it all depends on work ... keep your fingers crossed!!!!

Would love to meet another Shetland person if you make it to BSG! That fiery fiber is gorgeous, and I think your spinning looks great!
