Part Two: How it all works (according to me)

Image
my husband and I met up with some friends this weekend and they has asked about spinzilla and wanted to know how it all works.  I had briefly explained how it all works and figured that since I was likely to start from nothing on this journey it might be helpful to know how this all works. Step one: Sheep.  if you want to spin yarn, you will need to source some fiber.  but, where does it come from?  the easy answer is from sheep.  however, living in a non-spinning centered (or sheep herd centric) city, I choose to purchase prepared fiber.  I used to have a shop near by to purchase fiber from, now I order from an online vendor. the possibility also exists to find locks from sheep to prepare and then spin. like these. Step two: Prepare your fiber. I have several methods to choose from.  I own a pair of carders and a pair of combs.  I will either card or comb my fiber until it is the way I want to spin and then I'll spin.  I don...

Pre Spinzilla Part Two

didn't think there would be a part two.  however, receiving more wooly goodness tuesday and getting my spinning schedule worked up there is a need to update! I picked up one of these (actually two) of the Woolery's Spinzilla special Spinzilla 2017 Fiber packs. it is so soft and gorgeous i person.  this is the first time I have ordered fiber online and wasn't sure if I would like it. usually, I'd rather pick up fiber in person, so I can feel it and get an idea of what it looks like in person (colors, texture, depth, etc).  and the personal experience is better.  plus when my hubs goes along, he likes to help pick out colors and new fiber to challenge me with. I also purchased the Spinzilla 2017 Colorway from Sweet Georgia called fire starter. with eight fiber selections to work through this year, I'm really looking forward to the fun.  my goal is to reach 5456 yards (8047 meters) worth of spinning.  that's a 5k (3.1 miles)!  last year ...

Spinzilla 2017

hooray!  spinzilla has officially concluded and at midnight my time zone all the yardage should have been submitted and the finally team tallies will begin. I really pushed myself this year and placed my goal well outside of my reach.  at times I wasn't sure if I'd even make it.  even my hubby had to cheer me on and give a pep talk about keep working to meet my goal.  it was was close there for a few  hours (a day).  my goal this year to spin 5 km.  That is 5468 yards (5000 meters). at the end of it all, I did make my goal and passed it by just over 100 meters (technically 168 meters). here is my schedule for the week and what actually was  spun.  I was bummed I didn't get to the Sweet Georgia fiber I wanted to spin for this year, but I was unsure of with kind of prep that was needed, I decided to pass in order to make my mileage. of course I plied everything into a 2 ply yarn, so the mileage includes plying credit. three days I spun ...
