Still a #spinning beginner but getting more comfortable. I spun these singles over the past 3 days. I've read that I should let them "rest" before plying. Not sure why or for how long but doing it anyway. #spinningyarn #spinningwool
Haven’t had crafting energy in weeks, but today I whacked the spinning wheel out. Needed that. #handspinning #spinning

Because of vacation there's a lot of crafting time (yes, I take my #spinning wheel on vacation, it's a travel wheel after all).

So far I've spun those two bobbins - they are from the bottom left spiral of fiber. Each has two layers - one very fine merino, the other silk merino. Each bobbin is one of those layers.

The singles are extremely fine, a 3ply will probably make a (light) fingering yarn.

Just vague plans what to do with the finished yarn.

Replaced the snapped cotton spinning wheel drive band with a nylon one and gave the joints a good oil. It’s running beautifully now.

Had to test on one of the advent fibers from Golden Fleece Studio … Starry Night - merino, eri silk, firestar (sparkle!) and bamboo. Very soft and silky.

Plan to spin the rest of last Christmas advent fibers in #TourDeFleece in July.

So I managed to hose myself down after the art market and drag all my artwork and equipment back into storage.

Somehow I am not exhausted? This is bizarre.

But I will tell you in the morning why it doesn't make sense to ask "Is Icelandic wool/yarn SOFT?"
