spindle spinning snapshots

now I have three little top-whorl spindles. the photo above shows what they look like today, Thursday, June 2, now that I'm back from the informal museum spinning demonstration at the downtown Sharlot Hall Museum.

and this, below, is from some weeks ago when I'd first bought the two new ones. the plainer old one is a basic Schacht spindle from my local yarn store. the others were ordered from Snyder Spindles in Wisconsin.

they are all very cool-looking and fun.

I'm only spinning wool thus far (various textures of merino roving), in these three quite lovely colors: oregano, grey, and begonia.

I'll probably blog more about spinning and spindles sometime this month. today I am too busy just spinning, though.
