Oh The Joys of January Spin-in!


Besides, having a blast with my spinning friends--lots
of laughter--spinning tips, techniques, trials and tribulations
shared--there are vendors!! oh, yes!  vendors!!

Every year I say to myself--"self, don't buy anymore
fiber--your closet is packed already" 

 Then...
you arrive and watch the vendors placing their
beautiful fibers and other sundry items on the tables,
and you can't help but submit---
okay, where is my checkbook and here is my
credit card just pass it from vendor to vendor!



just look at these spoils from January spin-in!


The lovely handwoven dishtowel is by Charlene Schurch--
what a fantastic weaver she is!  This year she wove "Destin
Dozen"--12 different towels on the same warp.
 Each remarkable in color depth and design--
on top of the towel are spun fibers--thank you very much!
And a luxury wool, silk yak blend on the left.

There is that lovely wool blend again with two skeins
of sock yarn from Gale's Art;

Two skeins from Dicentra Designs--the two in the middle;
sock yarn on bottom to the right and on top of the
sock yarn is dyed Egyptian cotton sliver from
Ewephoric Fibers; and the fiber roving on the very
left is from Deep Dyed Yarns

And least but not forgotten is this 8 oz roving bundle

Here comes the spinning bug......................
