But I need spinning that is portable as I will be away on Saturday without a wheel so a spindle would be good.
I had a quick practise last night so I guess this spinning is day 4 :-) combed southdown which is actually destined for the wheel. I still can't make up my mind on which spindle to use. Definitely not the big one as I'm washing some Shetland that is quite fine. Maybe the smaller one which is 17 gram or I may raid the collection for something sized a bit in-between these two.
I have a couple of Russian spindles that I would like to master to use in the van, maybe I'll dig them out as well,
The Shetland washed up well and I'm playing with it on the small spindle.
I also spun maybe 3/4 of a bag of Jacob this afternoon.
more tomorrow x

Lovely spindles!!! I always dig mine out for the Tour and then wonder why I don't use them more often.
Your puffs of fluff look devine! I love a spindle for travelling withwith. I have a turkish one that is 3d printed & it spins like a dream. Its great as when i have finished the cop I can take it off as a complete centre pull ball. Great for plying.
