My Tour de Fleece 2024 - Day 1 surprises! Spinning alpaca 

Thank you! That was fun 🎉 We have a lot in common: basics from Mom, learn from books, being told years later that I knit wrong, spin for fun, and what feels good! Got a bag of alpaca… spun raw, cadre and spun, ply because it’s too thin… See you tomorrow!

You're doing a great job, hugs from new subby xx

I'm also tagging along solo with the Tour de Fleece for the 1st time. I started spinning in October on a drop spindle and I now have 3 drop spindles and an Ashford Traveller I came across for £95 in a charity shop a couple of months ago. My goal is to spin for at least half an hour every day, to improve my wheel spinning and get the hang of my bottom whorl drop spindle. I also hope to spin a sweater quantity of yarn.

\(^-^)/ My kind of spinner

I am spinning 3 ply which I have never done before...have no one to spin with and spin dailly even if it is only 20 minutes...spin on an Ashford tradtional and use my Kiwi for plying...my goal for this tour de fleece

Your wheel is so pretty

What is the problem with uour wheel please ?
