A wild day in le Tour as well as in our own Tour de Fleece. I spent a fair amount of time teaching kids to spin this week, while the cyclists fought it out to win stages and avoid horrible crashes... Some of use fared better than others.I spent a lot of time working down that pound of fiber I scored from Ronnie's Homespun at the Black Sheep Gathering. Here is the latest: Veggie duo, done two ways.
The first yarn is a worsted to bulky 2-ply and the second is a sport to dk-weight of the same fiber. Isn't it cool to see how different they look? Or perhaps I am the only fiber nerd here.
The big news of the day for me is that, unlike last year, I made the deadline to submit yarns to the 2007 LA County Fair for judging. Last year I entered 3 yarns (late) and won 3 ribbons! Here's the scoop, in case you missed it.
I have more yarn to show, but will wait for tomorrow, Fiber Friday. Despite a bad toe that has nothing to do with anything, I will keep on spinning! How is the rest of the peloton?

That is beautiful, you did a great job on it!
That is neat! I'm surprised by how different they look, actually- the second one looks a lot more orange. Well done!
