My first spindle full of yarn!
The cat saying "what the heck is this thing?"
And I went ahead and added a rib to the bottom of the sweater. I think it looks fine! No more curl and you can see the hand spun yarn! I've actually finished the main body up to the armholes. I have to finish the one sleeve and start the second. Of course, I have spinning "homework" so we'll see how much of the sweater gets done this week!

Weee! I am so excited (jealous) for (of) you!
You look so relaxed behind the wheel. :) Isn't it so much fun? What kind of wheel are you using? My cat loves my spinning wheel - we actually had a bit of a kitty accident when I was borrowing one with spokes. She recovered though. :) Have fun!
Rock on! That looks fantastic!!!
The wheel is a Louet S51 I think! It works really well and is the one that my teacher goes to all of the time. This could be the one I order!
Wow! It is amazing what you can do with a spinning wheel. Looks great. I've alawys wanted to learn, maybe one day when my kids are bigger.
Thanks Abby! I definitely think little ones and a spinning wheel might not mix that well . . . I'm having lots of fun - have to finish up my second bobbin tonight before my class tomorrow!
You look so peaceful in that photo. Spinning is something I've wanted to try for a while now - perhaps you'll be the one to inspire me. x
