More fibre from The Shepherd’s Hut, this time it is some Falkland in ‘Pink Purple’ :o)
Another easy spin with this one – drafted nicely for a quick and fairly even worsted spin :o)
The colours are more patchy on this one, and whilst I lined up the colours it hasn’t created any large matched sections.
On the blending board it wasn’t easy to decide how to spread the fibres since the colours are so mixed together. I did manage some colour separation though :o) I struggled a little removing the rolags but I think that was just me having a silly moment!
I ended up with 7 rolags and remembered to use the scales to split them up this time :o)
Ended up with just a few inches extra on one bobbin compared to the other! Never matched so well before :o)
My woolen spinning is still less even than worsted, but I’m sure that’s just because I need more practise with the technique. The fibre was behaving nicely as there were moments when it spun beautifully. Then I’d be distracted by the TV and it would get lumpy again ;o)
