Day Five:

Spinning was painful today, lol. I'm going to have to spend more time stretching and resting instead of obsessively pedaling.

Finished and plied all 4 oz of Champagne. Too tired to count yardage, but got some nice pictures before the light was all gone. (they're fuzzier than I thought they'd be... I must have moved or something...)





Aaaaaand all my tour skeins together hanging out:

Day Four:

Less spinning today than I'd hoped for, but I enjoyed every second and will probably spin another hour or two tonight. I'm posting before I lose my steam. :)



2 ounces of Spunky Club "Champagne" to be a 2 ply fingering weight sock yarn. It's funny, I missed this colorway by a month (my first month was January) and I remember thinking I was glad I hadn't joined before because the colors weren't me at all. Then after I'd seen it spun up.... I wound up buying 8 oz off of someone. I think it was the first time I realized how spinning changes the roving. Now that I've branched out color wise a lot over the months, Champagne is one of my favorite club colors ever!

And here's today's spinning with everything I've done so far. I'm going to keep taking progress pictures of the whole tour's spinning progress together (although I'm going to have to switch to a larger basket soon, I think!).

Day Three:

Finished today in time for the last of the natural daylight for picture taking. Yay!. Posting my progress each day really pushes me to spin a little longer and finish things so I can post skeins instead of bobbins.



I finished spinning the singles and plied my 6 ounces of Merino/Tencel I picked up last year at Rhinebeck (if anyone wants to know where it's from I think the info is in my stash). Approx. 281 yards (yay!).The shine is just so glorious I can't help staring at it.



I still had 4 ounces of Spunky Club "Pansy" left, and I tried my hand at thicker singles. That was a lot of fun and I love the way it looks so I'm sure I'll be doing it again, probably during the Tour too. 193 yards.
