*cackles* I managed to get 400g of ‘ice cream’ merino & milk fibre singles on my bobbin. I’m planning to measure off 3 equal lengths of singles to 3 ply with a sparkly silver thread.

I know I am an overthinker but when things start making me second guess my detective button gets pushed

Day 7 of drawing a random character!
Nami from One Piece!
She’s a bit more of my interpretation of her with her slightly hooked nose 🤷♀️
I haven’t watched all of One Piece but still wanted to draw her, she’s so pretty 😩💕

My first Tour de Fleece had a lot of little accomplishments, but the big one was completing my first wheel spin!

I received this braid as an early Christmas present. Spinning it for fun, in between everything else that I should be doing before the weekend.
Marino, silk, cashmere, gold stellina.
Soft and lightly sparkly.

Going to mix up all stars teams for a Au I have in mind with Gabby and Jake as friends. It’s basically somehow gabby finds a way back to the beginning of season 1 and fixes her mistakes and becomes close friends with Jake, Tom and Miriam. I’ll explain it more in another post!

Did some wheel maintenance today, remains to be seen if I'll get my daily TdF spin in.
This wheel has some quirks that while she can spin, it's kind of annoying. Main thing was the back leather bearing (what I'm holding in the picture). It was a replacement for the original I got with the wheel, but the leather's too flimsy, so I'm trying just a leather cord that's tied into place. Fingers crossed it'll make things smoother until I can get a new, stronger leather bearing made.
Also tried some Howard's Feed & Wax on the wooden tensioning screw & the base of the mother of all. The whole wheel's covered in a substance that the Howard's doesn't penetrate (considering if it'd be worth it to strip & refinish it) but the areas of exposed wood are VERY dry. Feeding it in those spots did wonders. The tension's always been sticky and creaky, but now it's smooth and totally silent. Awesome for now, but I've heard paraffin wax suggested for wood-on-wood parts of antique wheels and want to give that a shot for long term protection.

Join us for Spin Together!
Spin Together is an international celebration (with a little competition) of hand spinning! For the week of Feb 17-24, you spin whatever you want - as much as you can. Your totals are tallied with your team, and prices (electronic gift cards) are distributed to winners in a variety of categories. You can read all the deals on the Spin Together website.
If you're looking for a team, Griffin Dyeworks Spinners has space for you!
Many of us are historical re-enactors - but not all of us.
Many of us spin on hand spindles for the week - but not all of us.
Many of us are in Southern California - but not all of us!
We have a FB group and Discord, daily (non required) check ins, and welcome spinners of all skill levels. We're not in it to win it - we all set our own personal goals. My goal is usually to spin a little every day - I usually get between 40-300 yards completed. Our most prolific hand spinner gets 2000 yards! One year my goal was to spin a different type of fiber every day. It was really fun and educational putting deliberate focus on my spinning, which I usually don't do.
I hope you'll consider joining us this year! There's a $15 reg fee, which I can cover for you if needed.
Sign up ends Feb 4! http://spintogether.org

I bought this Merino/bamboo roving at a Fiber Fest in Indiana about 7 years ago.
I had a hard time spinning the other day. The spindle, bobbin, and flyer kept falling out. Turns out the Mother of All wasn’t tight in its mount.
It’s still slow going because I can’t keep a good rhythm with the treadle… but It's been like 5 years since I did any spinning on the wheel.
But I have to quit for now because that stool hurts my back.
