Le Tour de Fleece: Days Two, Three, and Four

We were out all day Sunday but I did manage a little bit of spinning in the evening, and finished off bobbin 3.

Half way through the singles now!

It was spinning group at Ash yesterday, so I got started on bobbin 4 although I was having a bit of trouble with the treadles feeling very heavy. A bit of oil on the hinges sorted that out and I managed to spin quite a bit more in the evening.

I re-oiled the wheel again this morning, and wiped off some black gunk which was on the hinges and it has been spinning much better!

Before I had to go out today I spun a bit more of bobbin 4, hopefully I might finish this one tomorrow, it feels like I am rocketing along now (though luckily with fewer crashes than the cyclists). So here is bobbin 4 as it looks now:

And this is a recap of what I have spun on days two, three, and four, with a bit of the fibre too.
