Tour de Fleece Update!

Watching and pedaling with the Tour de France bikers is the delight of my day!
load my wheel with necessary bobbin, gather my spun yarns,
grab a cup of Joe and begin the process of  pulling ends from two different
bobbins to ply with the wheel!
and we're off.......
the scenery along the way is beautiful--oh, look at that 14th century built--church--unbelievable!  How was that done with just hand tools; no power equipment at all--it's amazing!
the Mountains are lovely; the people along the route cheering on the participants-- all the caravans parked nearby--


Here is my progress the first few days on the tour
Several more bobbins to ply
The reward is finished yarn to use on the handwoven towels on the loom.

Happy treadling!
