FOTF

/

FOTF = Fiber Off The Floor. I taught two spinning classes yesterday at our Fiber Fun Retreat. The first was Blending Fiber & Color on the Drum Carder. The second was Spinning in Color. The drum carding was such fun, but I didn't get to do it because they were using the drum carders, not me. As I was cleaning up I found the little bits of fiber under the chairs and that had been discarded from the drum carders.   fotf-1 Hmmm. I carded the fiber.

I spun it and plied it with a dark gray singles.

I wish that I'd had mosre students so that I'd have more waste fiber! I'm going to post a photo of this on Ravelry. I now have a Meridian Jacobs group there. Anyone can join! http://www.ravelry.com
