day 6, not much variety


Here is my day 6 spinning, more of the same really. I need to decide if I can grit my teeth and finish this fleece, or sneak in some other colours. I think I will weigh what is left and see how many more bobbins that equates to

day four

This is my spun yarn for day four, more of the blue. I am trying to get a consistent weight.
The small amount of brown is my first attempt at lace weight.
It is not too bad. I have plied two singles. I would now like to try plying three and see how the finished yarn looks.
