Spinning!
My spinning wheel arrived back from the folks at Babe yesterday, and it's running like a dream. I've already spun some ingeo silk and made inroads on plying.Unfortunately, I have problems both drafting and plying. The yarn breaks. And then we run into the problem of the Magical Disappearing End. I seriously stare at the bobbin for 5 minutes and I can't find it anywhere. And then I'll find when I think is the end but it's actually a crappy join from earlier or an accidental yarn breakage from earlier and that works for a few minutes and then you have a Magical Disappeared End and an end that you can't actualy use. OR after 10 minutes of searching, I randomly break the yarn to see if I can get it going again.
Of course, it's midnight and I'm incoherent, so this probably doesn't make any sense.
In the end, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have breakages in this yarn. And it's for my SP5. Sorry, SP5.
