An update with progress pictures! ✨

So far, a wonderful experience! My data may be skewed because I’m also spinning from the fold for the first time, but this is my most consistent spin to date and I’m pleased as peaches with how it’s looking so far!! I have a big batch of combed top fiber and right now I’m honestly planning to steam the lot of it.

I did a quick warm up spin with un-steamed merino too before diving into the neon fluff, and I found it to be noticeably… stickier? Just sort of clumpier to draft from. (Also spun from the fold.)

Bright green and yellow combed wool, rolled up into two large cylinders and four skinny cylinders. They have gold glitter mixed in.

So I have never ever spun from any sort of rolag (rolog, fauxlag, etc.) but here we gooooo! I am aiming for something at least vaguely fractal using half of a stunningly gorgeous art batt from Colibri Studio.
