Spin-Off

Spin-Off Magazine
In the mail came the latest issue of Spin-Off, a magazine dedicated to the home spinner. I saw several projects in this issue that I would love to do. I spin with an Ashford Joy Traveler spinning wheel. I'm currently spinning the fleece that I purchased at the Shepherd's Harvest Festival held in May this year at the Washington County Fairgrounds in Lake Elmo, MN. The fleece is a Blue Face Leister cross that has good crimp and a nice softness to it. I love the natural charcoal of the spun wool too. Now the hardest decision of all - What do I knit with this wool? I think I will have enough for a sweater at least.
