spin me right round baby right round like a record......

so the sun came out yesterday.......and i stayed home from work........and i didn't call to tell them i wasn't coming........and they didn't call to ask where i was......i call that PROGRESS!!!




so............i took out the spindle and practiced on the last of the the roving that came with the kit....i ditched the dvd and watched YouTube - Park and Draft Spinning for Rheba and made my own PROGRESS!!



i really liked how she says "don't be afraid to.." several times........my spinning seems to be better.....i still can't just let it spin ~ have to "park" it but am getting a better more uniform.....uhhhh ~yarn?

the dvd has you break the roving in half.........the video shows just pulling down the whole length of the roving.......makes more sense ~ you also get longer yarn.........so my next spindle spinning will be monday morning with the weird green brown stuff!


and big sister's afghan might be closer to being done!


tuna is unimpressed..............he's heard me say stuff like that before.........and he's glad i didn't have time to clean his "patch of carpet" cause it's just like he likes it ;)
