Whoa!!

2/9/2011: So I bought a spinning wheel...one Kromski Sonata, we'll call her Mabel. Isn't she pretty!?


2/12/2011: and I "learned" to spin. Seen here at Libby's house for my first lesson! (Thank You Libby!!)


2/12/2011: Started with some practice fiber I got from FreckleFaceFibers a very long time ago!



2/13/2011: I even "tried" plying...

2/13/2011: Then I said..."enough with the practice! let me at some fiber!!" I said that...just like that. I got this fiber from Libby...she's trying her hand at dyeing and this braid didn't make the cut!
2/13/2011: and plyed...
2/18/2011: I finally got a private lesson from Sarah! niddy noddy (yes, that's a real word!) and washing.
the final product!!


So now I think I can do anything right!! I made yarn after all!! so I broke out the good stuff!!
Funky Carolina MCN in gimme gimmes!!


2/20/2011: and turned it into these!!
I can't wait to knit this up!!
