Entry for November 14, 2006
Well, I was going to work on my sweater coat honest, but this Yak down kept calling my name and saying it wanted to be spun. So of course I had to. :) I've discovered that short fibers are harder to spin :P. I started this on Sunday because it's peaceful to spin and normally I can ponder other things while I spin, but this stuff took all my concentration. You can see it is fluffy like a cloud, it is loose carded and the fibers are very short, but it is very very soft. I did some spinning on it for about an hr last night and it's a little easier now. Still takes a lot of my concentration tho, other wise I keep getting close and closer to the spinning oriface or the fiber breaks, which was the problem on Sunday. I had to loosen my tension as well so it wouldnt take it in as fast. Anyway, this is the Yak I got from ebay some months back. I'll get back to my sweater coat soon, cos it is getting cold outside :P.
