Oh heck, just one more session before bed.

Really.

My hands won't hate me in the morning.

Much.

have started the 3-ply chain ply, and ooh, nice!

I probably won't feel this way for long... there's a lot of thread to ply.

A lot. From 50 grams, but it's mostly v-e-r-y thin.

or rather, *was*. Still working on another bobbing of a very thin single, which I will chain ply, hopefully beginning tomorrow. All in all, I think I got about 2 hours of spinning in, as well as boiling up 2 skeins - now that I have my bits in place, I'm getting to use the boiling treatment to set the twist.

2時間ぐらい毛で細い糸を紡いでからこの糸を撚るつもりです。「鎖」という撚り方で3つ撚の糸を作れるようになります。その上に作ったかせを沸いているお湯に入れて、撚りをよく定着します。

Ah, Shop! I am mellowing so much having returned home - I am trying to figure out if I even want , and keep saying to myself, "Well, maybe later..."

I'm been getting some prime socialising done here, too. Thank you, all the readers and responders!

I'm still pretty wiped from that bike ride yesterday. I'm slowly recovering, but my morning has consisted a lot of y/n? and answering with 'n'.

a commercial roving (?) from , a lovely multicoloured one called Nube (which I self-deprecatingly call "noob"), color run "Whale's Road" - all purples and dark turquoises with the occasional tint of lavender or even a bit of white.

I'm spinning rather fine, with the intention of it, just to see the result.

In this weather, it's at least pleasant.

A quiet , for with my fellow . with a drop spindle, this time with a commercial wool roving, probably Merino by the feel of it.

Not sure if I'll get in as much time as yesterday - despite my best efforts to "pace" myself, my hands are letting me know, by being even warmer than the weather, that they've noticed this extra work I'm asking them to do.

- my gambit to do fine threads only in 50 gram portions had been working out. As has the 30 minute max spinning sessions.

Luckily, carding wool exercises a different set of muscles, unkinking some of the ones that get stiff during the stationary spinning sessions.

*stretch* two sessions, er, no... three!!

I a fine thread (previous skein, a 2-ply, clocked in at the equivalent of 212 m/50 grams), so it's going to take awhile longer to finish this single before them together.

or rather, *was* - still on the fine-spun Texel-Kempen Heath cross from my friend.

Went *slightly* over my resolution to limit myself to 30 minute sessions - trying to pay attention to issues like my posture during that time. But I was so close to the end of a rollag.... *chuckle*

I wound off the 100 gr of twined natural wool.

Some bits are horribly over twisted, but an amazing amount of it seems to actually be quite balanced!!

Note to self - work with 50 skeins for this thickness!
