Sunday, spinning all day.
A very good turnout again for our now-regular Sunday day out in LlanfairTH. The new heaters are working a treat, although still tending to trip the fuses; this is not a major problem now the fuses really do trip rather than melt. Anyway, we were nice and warm all day and it was great to see a room full of wheels at work. One or two technical problems were solved, and a lot of yarn was produced.
I'm using a computer in Abergele Library to upload these photographs, and for some reason they're jumping about and the captions are re-arranging themselves. I hope you can make out what's what. It's not helped by the fact that I can't remember which images belong to which spinner.

| Glorious, glorious colours. Hilltop Cloud fibre, I think. |

| A very enviable handful of dyed silk, also from Hilltop Cloud (I think) |
 |
| Carding Falklands' fleece |
 |
| - and this is the silk, spun up to a fine lustrous yarn. |
 |
| More nice spinning - it's a while since the meeting, and I've forgotten which photos are of whom: I think this is Jenni's Shetland. |
 |
| .. and Pauline's worthy efforts with a donated fleece. She usually knits dog blankets with it! |
 |
| I do remember that this is going to be one of a pair of felt mittens, made by piecing half-felts and interesting bits and pieces. |
 |
| The obligatory Photograph of Cakes- what's left of them. |
See you all in Abergele at the end of the month.
