  1. First time I've spun in over thirty years. Bought some fleece because I thought I should start spinning again or give away my wheel.

    I got carried away with all the colours. I planned to only use this orange as highlights so I thought it didn't matter if I wasted some of it on practice. I genuinely didn't think I'd be able to knit it up!

    So happy with the result, I've even started planning a blanket around my practice yarns.

    Any hints and tips welcome. I'm spinning on an old Ashford traditional. I thought I had over spun the singles but maybe I under spun them?
