New Year 2011 This year I've decided to put a dent on my spinning wool. To begin I dug into some llama wool, which I've purchased from Tao New Mexico. It is simply as soft, and yummy as can be. It's spinning up lovely. By the way, did you know the word SPINSTER, Originally a term applied to young unmarried women (since it was they who usually did all the spinning) eventually applied to unmarried women who were past the usual age to marry. I find that quite interesting. Here's a photo of the wheel with the llama wool, and one with the llama wool ready to use for a knitting or weaving project.
