warming up for tour de fleece 2011

Tour de fleece is coming and I’m trying to get ready. It’s been nice to sit down and spin. :)

I finally found a way to spin the cashmere/tussah silk that works for me. I had thought I’d never get it done… now I’m almost finished with the 2nd bobbin. Here’s some proof!! :)
