Tour de Fleece week 2 has been a little less varied than week 1. I began the week by experimenting with turning a landscape into yarn inspired by Ashford’s blog. The rest of the week was devoted to Clun Forest spinning. I have a weaving project in mind for this which will require thin warp threads, so I’m spinning thinner singles than I have spun before. Although I get more length this way, it means the bobbin takes longer to fill, so I haven’t got round to plying yet – hopefully next week. Below are my daily progress photos from days 9-15 (4th July – 10th July).
For more information about my tour de fleece challenge my introductory blog post is here and my week 1 wrap up is here. I’m also posting my progress photos daily on my instagram.
If you are also joining in with Tour de Fleece (whether part of a group or going it alone like me!) I’d love to hear how you’re get on – feel free to share your progress/goals in the comments section.
Happy Spinning!
