So far so good. I got out the wheel again yesterday and went for a 2-ply of the alpaca/silk singles I had. The skein is 270 yards and 6 3/4 ounces. I forgot to measure the WPI but it looks to be about a DK weight. I can tell it's been too long since I had the wheel out as it's not terribly consistent but it's beatifully soft so I think it would make a great scarf or hat. It's very nearly black so the photo of the whole skein is closer to the true color.Saturday some friends and I made it down to the Connecticut Sheep and Wool festival which is a tiny wee one with four buildings full of vendors and 5 or 6 ones outside in tents. I picked up some silk hankies (that I have no clue what to do with but they were cheap so why not?) and a 2 1/2 pound fiber bump that'll be my summer spinning.
And now I have a question about photo etiquette for this blog. I have no clue how much storage these blogs have so I'm not sure if it's better to refer to posts on my own blog and keep it to one or two here or if it's okay to post more here. As you can see, for this post I opted for the conservative route.
