Spinning

I bought a spindle and some roving at the Great Lakes Fiber show in 2006. I tried & failed spindling miserably. The yarn broke all the time, the spindle kept dropping and my kids were laughing at me.

While at Knitters Connection, 2007 I saw Jacki teaching Dianne and I was inspired. I got home and kept trying. I finally conquered the spindle. By then, the spindle was too slow for me. I researched about spinning wheels and decided on the Lendrum without trying nor taking wheel spinning lessons. It's now a year since I first started. I've come a long way.

Since last year, I have taught both my daughters how to knit, spin on a spindle and a wheel. They have come a long way too. I'm proud to pass on this craft on to them.
