The only thing that I spun on this day was the alpaca yarn in the upper right hand corner. I would have spun more, but I had to attend a huge fiber sale! A local fiber artist is moving and Greenberry House in Meadows of Dan, Virginia is having a big sale this weekend and next weekend to sell lots of items. I purchased quite a bit of fiber and a few small pieces of equipment. Here are my purchases: a Lincoln sheep fleece, a Cotswold sheep fleece, Turkish Spindle, Flick Carder, apron, a weaving book, a small drop spindle, thrown silk waste, silk roving, cochineal dyed Angora, silk hankies, a recycled blue jean cotton/flax roving, mohair top, recycled denim.white & brown cotton roving, cream colored cotton roving, more silk roving, gold Tussah silk, blue silk noil, merino/silk/cashmere roving, superfine Merino top, a cone of turquoise yarn, Icelandic wool roving, brown/cream/black roving, 8 oz white wool roving, 10 oz white Lincoln wool locks, a handmade wool basket, and a couple of bags of assorted wools which includes some beautiful long Lincoln wool locks dyed green. |
This was my first project using my new blending board! The dyed roving used in this project is what I dyed last weekend. |
The new Meadows of Dan Elementary School is under construction and it is looking fabulous so far. I can't wait to see what it looks like when it is completed.
