My First Handspun

I can spin yarn! Well, sorta. I decided to give a drop spindle a whirl (pun intended) and really enjoyed my first attempt. Sure the yarn looks like sheep vomit, but it can only get better. The fiber is Corriedale wool.

  2. Congratulations! I love spinning. I really enjoyed the drop spindle, bought a wheel and lost my spinning time. arg! I still have some of my original yarn. It's so relaxing.
