Tour de Fleece update July 18-20, 2016

  My spinning for the week so far

 

 Singles -  Cormo .  White roving and brown batt I think. .....

 Spun on a drop spindle

 The purple and fawn colors were on the bobbin spun during the workshop this week. 

 It was held at the Gutierrez Hubble House, a national historic house in the South Valley of Albuquerque. 

 Under a grant from Albuquerque Fiber Arts Council and Las Aranas Spinning and Weaving Guild,  

 Spanish Colonial Textiles  were taught in the house and under the portal (porch). 

 There were 4 classes:  spinning, weaving, knitting socks, and colcha embroidery - 

 all crafts that were part of life in the Gutierrez Hubble House on El Camino Real.
 Google for more information.

 Plied yarn from Wednesday , July 20, 2016. 
 Romney undyed plied with dyed forest green variegated Romney. I liked spinning that.
 I got a nice balanced  single and 2 ply. That's a real accomplishment for me!
