Just a little bit
I only had time to do a little bit, but the blog has worked it's magic... if I hadn't signed up I wouldn't have done it at all. This was about an hours worth squeezed in here and there, it's Corriedale which I'm sorry to report, has felted slightly, so we'll have to see what it's like when it's plyed. Oh well.
Do you know what caused it to felt, was this before you spun or while spinning? My corriedale rovings tend to felt just slightly if they're packed a bit tightly in storage but I haven't noticed a problem once it's spun.

I dyed the roving, and I think it got a bit too hot, it's just not as soft in the prespun state as it was, but sill useable.
