…And I started spinning last night! I love that hand-spun yarn is so unique – not 100% uniform like commercial yarns.
I ordered my “Learn to Spin Kit” from Golding Fiber Tools in Vermont (http://www.goldingfibertools.com/). The drop spindle is hand-carved in a Celtic Ring design and the kit came with 2 oz of Coopworth roving. I chose this design because I used some money that my pop-pop gave my for Christmas to buy the spindle and he’s from Scotland. I will always think of him whenever I use this spindle.
You will never regret going with a Golding!
I love it! Last month, at my spinning group I tried spinning on one. The woman who let us try it said she thought they were easier to spin on than any other spindle.
