Tour de Fleece 2010 – Days 15-17

Went raspberry picking Saturday evening at Childer’s Raspberry Farm in Albany. The raspberries are ginormous! Today I made freezer jam with them. Is it wrong to just have toast with jam for dinner?

Here’s my yarny progress for the last few days:

DAY 15

Beach Glass - Tour de Fleece 2010 Day 15

Beach Glass – chain plied (N-ply)

DAY 16

Maleficent - Tour de Fleece 2010 Day 16

Maleficent – Polwarth from Abstract Fibers

DAY 17

Maleficent - Tour de Fleece Day 17

Maleficent – 2 ply, 426 yards

  1. How do you get your singles so beautifully thin? I seem to be able to get to a DK weight and no thinner!

    Practice, practice, practice! I should post some photos of my older stuff so you can see the difference. :-) I’ve been spinning for 2 years now, so, it’ll come.

    I can’t drop spindle worth a darn. I wanted to comment over on your blog & tell you how great your spinning is looking after just a few days, but it wanted me to log in to Google or something. Anyway, WTG!! *cheers*

  3. Thanks for the encouragement! I keep practicing – every day I try to get in at least a half hour (if I were half so dedicated to exercise, I’d be fifty pounds lighter!).
