spinning

Well it has happened. I have started to spin. And it is great. I think it is my new passion. But I have lots of practice ahead of me to get to be a good spinner. I have a great teacher, my mum. So I am sure I will be able to knit something from it soon, or am I dreaming a bit. I am also off to do a dyeing workshop so I will be able to colour my new yarn. The only problem is that I have been neglecting my shawl while I have been spinning. I will have to find a way to share my time.
The poodle loves to eat the fleece so I have to keep him away from it.
I am spinning the wool from Jack, our beautiful sheep and it is a good fleece, so I am told.
