This weekend I attended a spinning retreat put on by the Northern Lights Spinning Guild. It was held at YMCA camp in Loretto, MN. There were about 25 or so women who attended and it offered some wonderful classes. It was wonderful to be able to get together with my friends Nancy, Becky, Angie and Gail as well as meeting so many wonderfully talented women in the Guild.
I worked on spinning some of my musket Shetland roving. I managed to fill two full bobbins of single ply and came home this afternoon to try out the bulky head that came with my Lendrum spinning wheel. I was able to ply both bobbins of single ply into a full 4 oz. skein of yarn. Up until this afternoon I've been limited to making 2 oz skeins.
