These two projects have been languishing on the wheels since LAST SUMMER.

Ugh. This pink and green Finn Top, that I bought at last year's Sheep and Wool Fest, looks more like someone's insides than wool. Why did I buy pink? I can't even remember why I started spinning this in the first place.

Even worse, my pretty little Merino sample is going to turn out to be not enough to do anything with.

This is all I have left from a 4 ounce bag of unwashed fleece that I had so much fun washing and combing this summer.
I suppose the lesson learned here is that I am not very good at spinning just for the sake of making yarn. Unless there is a specific project planned for the yarn-to-be it drops way down on the To Do list. It's a wonder the moths have not made a meal of it yet.
I'm learning, too. In this month that I've rented a wheel, if a project just isn't working for me, I wind it off into a skein and store it. There's no point in keeping full bobbins you're never going to use. ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plan. That pink stuff has got to go.
