And so begins the spin

It all started when one day I said to myself “Michelle, you can figure this out, just do it and get over it!” I had a student 2.8 ounce Ashford bottom whorl spindle, a pile of inexpensive roving and just went for it.  Now you know the rest of the story.  I got a Kundert 1.2 ounce, top whorl spindle  and some Targhee wool from The Fiber Studio in Mineapolis and fell IN LOVE with spinning. Here’s the Kundert in action, and the resulting skein.
