Of course, I had to quickly spin up some of the fiber I received yesterday.

First, the specially dyed superwash roving that Carol sent:

I tried to spin a sportweight single with quite a bit of twist.

I just can’t get over how nice the colors are.  I’ve no idea what I’ll do with this, but I know I’ll be ordering more.  This may have been the easiest roving I’ve ever spun.  I think this would be great for a beginner.

Next up, a picture of the sample I’d spun yesterday of the Brown Sheep mill end rovings in browns (now that it is dry, it is soft and smooshy and most pleasing).

Finally, here is a bit of llama I spun (in the grease) a couple of weeks ago.

This yarn has grown on me.  I am really liking how rustic and handmade it looks now.
