Wool Wash Day

If you look to the right in the sidebar, you'll see that I loaded pics of my projects, wheels, and wool wash day. Check out the dirty wash water. That was from what amounts to a double handful of wool. The little lady helping me is my niece, and the kitty is Patches. You see the mountain of wool that accumulated on the counter. I've started running it through the drum carder, and will try to get pics of the carded wool. My cousin came over and looked at the uncarded stuff, and said it looked like something dead scraped up off the road. He then saw the batts and decided it would make nice wool after all.

I just love wool and I have always wanted to spin. It looks like so much fun and work. I am trying to use up my bits of wool and silk. My husband won't let me buy anymore yarn until some of it dissappears. I am a yarn junky! Do you sell any yarn that you spin? :o)
