Spinning Peanut


So this is my first attempt at spinning peanut's fleece. You can see how well she cleaned up. This yarn is less consistent than I have been, but the wool was not prepared as well (read, I prepared it myself with a dog comb, instead of getting it from a mill). I feel like it'll get smoother with practice. Also, peanut's wool is crimpy-er than the merino and corriedale top that I've been working with, so this yarn will have a bit of a halo. Halo equals more warmth, so that's not too bad.
