Sunday night spinning

Last night Shana came over for dinner and an evening of spinning. It was cozy and relaxing. Alex worked on a crossword on the couch, calling out tricky clues, while Shana and I chatted and spun up a storm.

I love the contrast between our wheels - sleek light wood modern with a whirring sound, and dark old traditional style with a (charming!) creak.

I managed to spin up all the dyed roving from the weekend, filling my bobbin to the max.

I dyed the other singles so tonight.... I ply!

Oh, pretty! And it does look like the lavendar in my garden, complete with slightly silvery cast.

I think we spun for about 4 hours! And 4 ounces of roving. Wow!
