It has arrived.......the wheel that I purchased from a fellow blogger arrived on Friday, and I got it all reassembled on Saturday. I have yet to spin on it because my friend, Kristi, had generously lent a Luett to me to practice my first spinning attempts until my wheel arrived. That meant I was right in the middle of filling a bobbin when my wheel arrived. Pamela Davis had this on her blog, and what a great buying experience. Lovingly packaged, great communication and speedy shipping, it was a top shelf transaction for me.
It is so refreshing to know that there are such honest and kind people out there, if you listen to the news, you'd think they are all gone.
For my first spinning attempts, I used some beautiful grey roving that I had on my shelf and I think it's make such lovely yarn. And here it is, my first bobbin almost done.................

First spinning attempt

I have about 10 minutes worth of spinning left to finish this 3.8 oz bump. One more bobbin to go and we shall see if I can ply. Wish me luck. It's not pretty, but I'm told I will get better.........we shall see.
TaTa for now all
Wow - I think that's VERY pretty! No other spinner would ever guess that is your first attempt. You're a natural!
