I think I’m hooked. Can you get addicted to spinning?
Evidence of my weakness — always in need of a lint brush, walking in clockwise circles.
I only managed this small ball of yarn from 2 ounces of mohair. I’m still spinning yarn of uneven thickness, but it seems to be getting easier.
Two ounces of Shetland Wool yielded 43 yards of yarn.
My first attempt at plying.

Your plying looks great! I did a bit of spinning last night and need to finish my bobbin so I can ply.
Can’t wait to see it!
Yes, it is VERY addictive! I love the comment, “walking in clockwise circles”. My name is Susan and I am a spinaholic!
Spinaholics unite!
How cool!!!
Thanks.
More and more are coming to the dark side. Welcome. We are so glad you have joined us. I am Sara, I am a Spinaholic. Don’t worry the kool-aid is fine… 😉
LOL!
The kool-aid is fine….and then they get you even further hooked by dyeing with it. Dyeing fiber with it, not die-ing from it! =)
Plus it’s kind of fun to use kool-aid. Makes me think of the giant kool-aid guy from the commercials!
YES!!! Score another for the spinners! It doesn’t even take long, does it? 😉
Btw, your spinning looks marvelous too!
Thanks. Still trying to spin more evenly. Having fun!
I am a spinning addict also…it is nice to have company.
Love your avatar pic! Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for your comments on my blog 🙂 It was actually this post of yours that got me inspired to give spinning another go the other day 😀 I’ve never seen a spindle like yours before. What type is it?
It’s a Turkish (bottom whorl) spindle made from padauk wood and a cherry wood shaft. It was hand-carved by Jeri Brock of Jeri Brock Woodworks. I have a link to her website on one of my posts, “Spinning Doodads.” Not sure if I can add a link in this comment box? Will enjoy watching our mutual progress. : )
Beautiful! I love it! I totally hear you on the addicting nature of spinning- I tried it once and it was all over.
The good thing is I can still carry on a conversation with my husband. Otherwise, might be trouble!!
