This morning, at around 8:30AM I grabbed a braid out of my fiber box, and started spinning.
At around 4Pm I've spun 4oz of Falkland in the colorway Peacock.
It's still amazing to me that I could do that, with time to spare to chain ply it later tonight.
I've also decided on what to spin next. It's also Falkland fiber, but it will be a real 3-ply. I've ripped the first 1/3 of the fiber into strips, but will spin it all tomorrow.
It looks so pretty.
It's been in my fiber stash for a couple of years now! It's time for it to be spun.
While I'm spinning, I see this:
They were sleeping in the same position, but as soon as I stopped treadling, they both looked up. Where's Denny, you ask? He was on the sofa.
During spinning breaks, we went outside, and the pups are deliciously tired from all the running, and swimming, and yapping, and the heat. This time it's Maggie, who's relaxed the most.

You spun 4 oz. of fine singles in less than a day?!? Holy crap!!
I enjoy your spinning so this will be a treat.
Your peacock yarn is lovely. If you do a bobbin a day, you're going to have 24 skeins of yarn!
I filled a bobbin today too and I was reminded how long it takes to spin a spool of fiber. This is my chance to purge some of the older fibers in the cabinet. Yay!
Wow! Great job! I have yet to sit at my wheel today.
Hallo Monika,
ich finde Deine Spinnereien wunderschön. Aber da du so gut wie nichts Gestricktes zeigst, frage ich mich, was du denn mit dem ganzen fertigen Garn machst?
Grüßle, die Bea
One of these days I'm going to have to come by and kidnap Denny! He's just too cute!
I love the bones all over the place -it's like my cats and their mice!
Last TdF I got up to about 8oz a day but I won't be doing that this year I think. The miniSpinner is definitely helping though! I love that Peacock color!
That looks like lovely pasta. I'm sure it's equally tasty yarn by today!
Poor Denny. Always having to take the high ground. :)
Love how denny has his lip draped over the arm of the sofa!
And that peacock yarn is fabulous.
Such pretty wool!! I am sure you would not spin so well without all their assistance!! They are so funny with all their shenanigans!!
