Customer Photos: Helen's First Spindle Spinning

Some time ago Helen purchased a 100g bump of my Limited Edition colour 'Nightfall', which is a Merino blend at www.SarasTextureCrafts.com  She set about learning to spindle spin with the fibre that day and came back to see me at several shows after to show me the progress. 

Here is the fibre as it arrived from me...

Here is the fibre on the spindle... wow, super fine!

And here is the fibre spun up into a 2ply lace yarn and being knitted into a shawl.

Thank you so much Helen for sharing that, I have loved watching your project and spinning passion grow over the last year.

I love to see people's projects, so don't forget if you have made something with my fibre or yarn, contact me at info@SarasTextureCrafts.com for a chance to be featured!
