Does the Spinning Guy Still Spin?

by The Spinning Guy

Yes! The answer is yes!

I have been spinning – steadily – if not nearly enough. I’m still working on this fleece. It is a big fleece. I should say it was a big fleece. Some of it is yarn and much of it is singles and the rest is roving. I hate to say it, but I’m getting tired of the fleece. I think Anna produces more fiber than our other alpacas ever did and as nice as the fiber is, it is white – endlessly white There is nothing wrong with white – especially if you want to dye the fiber. I’m just always enjoyed working with natural colors of alpaca. Sorry. No pictures of the yarn. The camera doesn’t seem to be out when the spinning wheel is.

In other news, Anna is a mother. There are several updates and some cute pictures in the blog – just follow the posts. We haven’t managed to visit Anna and her little one yet, but we will get there.

A while back – was it early October? I had intentions of blogging about it – I went to http://www.littlebarninc.com/ for a spinning day. It’s the first time I’ve sat in a spinning circle in a long time. The shop is close to our house. They have spinning circles most Saturdays. I keep intending to return for another spinning day, but Saturdays seem to be busy around here. It was a good group of people to sit and spin with – spinners usually are. I will get back. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
