Need a good laugh?<\/p>\n

Here are my first spinning attempts – well, not the very first. It wasn’t worth keeping or even taking a photo, it was just a few centimeters of an extremely, extremely overspun worm. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

But I think I’m getting a tiny little bit better every day (or at least I hope so)<\/p>\n

It’s getting a little bit more even and less overspun, but I still have large sections where the “yarn” is unspun. I’m pretty sure they are not there when I spin (I’d have to see them, wouldn’t I?), but when I’m done they are there.<\/p>\n

But spinning is great fun and I have already ordered lots of Kool Aid to try dyeing again.<\/p>\n
