My very first skeins :-)


Really, very little about these is truly mine. Yes, I did the spinning. However, Ann-Marie dyed the wool, and after spinning plyed and washed it.

(But I'm still pleased. If you should chance clicking on this photo and enlarging it, you will see some areas of fine fingering-weight (sock wool), areas of chunky weight and areas that are barely spun and somewhat embarassing. I am not consistent. Ann-Marie was very encouraging though, and said it was fine :-) ...)

Alison babysat at the MacKay's home last night, and was treated to a very brief 10-minute introduction to spinning once Ann-Marie was home (cut short by Kev coming to pick her up!). She is very eager to try more!

DH is impressed for your first spinning. "Beautiful" was his word.

That is very kind of him to say. It's not quite as pretty in real life, but thank you :-).

Blessings to you guys!
