So I know I should be trying not to post this late anymore but I can't rip myself away from my wheel. Though I had a bit of a problem last night. I was trying to ply some of my hand dyed fiber on the wheel and I may have you know... over filled the bobbin. Excuse me while I hide my head on the sand. It got all over and stuck in some of the moving bits and it was such a huge mess. I lost probably twenty yards because of this. I leaner my lesson. So what was left is about 80 or so yards of a bulky yarn.
I have yet to name it or wash it, as always I spam you with pictures first! Other then the whole yarn mess I really like my second wheel yarn. I don't know if I told you guys but I have named my wheel Ponyo. I love that movie and it is probably the most common thing I watch while spinning. I just finished up spinning my first ever tencel/merino mix and it was so hard. I felt like it was constantly just slipping though my fingers. Pictures of that tomorrow!
Oh how I love the pictures too! Such beautiful handspun. Honestly, I wouldn't be able to stop working on a brand new wheel if I had one as well. I also love Ponyo, but My Neighbor Totoro will always be my personal favorite!
