Tour de Fleece and WIP-it Wednesday...

...and it's mostly all spinning around here, just like every other Tour de Fleece. :)

Tour de Fleece, 7/11:

I finished spinning the singles for Meteor Shower [Ravelry]. I might hold off plying this for a day so I can knock out an art yarn.

Tour de Fleece, 7/12:

To meet the challenge for my Greenwood Fiberworks TdF team, I started a new camel-silk called Cider House [Ravelry]. I spent about 3 hours spinning it.

Then I switched over to spun an art yarn called Chrysalis Dreams [Ravelry]. This is a Wild Card Bling Batt from the Yarn Wench. I've been putting off spinning it because it has so much extra bits of fiber, silk ribbon and locks. I have to say that I like the look of it much better than I liked spinning it. It was a pain.
