Looking forward to more knitting and spinning time now!

How did you learn to spin? I so want to learn!
I just….taught myself? I mean, I purchased a wheel and read a lot on the internet and then trial and errored it until I got it right. That was in 2007, so it’s almost hard to remember what that was like!
I’m definitely going to have to try it! I have heard so many say how relaxing it is.
It is! Once you get the hang of it, it’s very relaxing. And you can easily start with a spindle rather than a wheel, not too much investment.
CVM/Romeldale seems to be a popular blend. I just finished spinning some roving that looks almost exactly like that. Although I realize it’s easy to look similar when you’re talking about natural browns. 🙂
I really love it. The fleece I have at home that are CVM Romeldale are beautiful, easy to process, and spin into such a nice bouncy yarn!
