| Beautiful natural alpaca roving. |
Today started yet again with some driving. This time it was to go se my weaving mentor to get some alpaca roving. I am in love! This is high quality alpaca, and it spins like a dream. It is a bit more slippery than wool, but it is oh so soft! I noticed that the singles are so strong that I can't break them, which means they will make some great warp yarn for future projects. I am currently spinning bulky yarn, and I had a bit of a bumpy start because I normally spin lace. However after a few attempts I have finally slipped into a good rhythm.
