Spinning

Here's photos of my latest spinning. When plying, I decided to pass one end through the loop at the end of the previous yarn I spun, and thus ended up with a tidy little join. :) The only thing I'm not too happy about is that I spun this half of the roving somewhat thinner than the first half. Given that it's a toque, and will be getting smaller in diameter anyway, I'm considering switching to smaller needles.

2 oz BFL, Two Ply
Winding From Spindle
I also discovered that if I put the spindle between the crooks of my knees, it's much easier to wind off the yarn. (Compared with letting the spindle flop around.)
