Tour de Fleece: Day 1


Judging by the pictures I've seen so far, Rookie is a far too advanced category for me. If Tour de France had a category for riders with training wheels on their bikes, I should be in the spinning equivalent. There are self-proclaimed beginning spinners out there making beautiful yarn. I feel like a complete idiot being in the same group with them. I will keep going, however. See those little lumpy things? That's because I turned my little spindle too much. That's my next goal, to turn it less. The fiber doesn't lend itself to being spun much thinner than bulky weight, so I'm not going to worry about that. I think I have an idea of what to do with the completed yarn. I'll post if the idea works out.
