New Spinning Wheel Pics.

Spinning is addictive!!!

Hi Everyone,
No I didnt fall off the face of the earth!!! Ive been busy spinning...filled two bobbins...now I want to ply them...(was taking a class but I had to cancel the lessons). The teacher offered to teach me the material later in the year.

After seeing a former classmates bobbins though I think I can go back and fill them up some more. I just have one question, I bought some "silver" or roving (that is the term for fiber that is in a long strip I read) and when I spin I end up getting a knot at the bottom as the fibers have been drafted at different rates through my hand ....any ideas?

Made a decision

Hi all,

Made a decision on my wheel purchase...its a Kiwi...I tried one at my last class and just fell in love with it...
These past few days have been so crazy.....and to top it off I got a nasty head cold...arrggg. I have not started my Einstein Jacket like I wanted to and last weekend I wanted to go to the Alphaca farm in Burlington but not feeling up to it...my daughter has it too.
So thats my news for today. Take care.....Kellogs

2nd Week Spinning Class

Hi
I have been so busy with kids activities; Boy scouts and girl scouts.

Just got back from my second spinning class; very cool; just got the rhythm down now I have to slow down so I dont overtwist the yarn. Im know looking at spinning wheels and cant decide between two - the Ashford kiwi and the Ashford traditional; both run very smoothly. Started knitting my Einstein Jacket...I only do this during my knitting group on Tues. morning because we are gabbing so much.

Well better go and get some shut eye...till later .....
Keli

First Day

WELCOME!!!!
