The first meeting was a success! When I got there it looked like I had stepped back in time. There were wheels everywhere! I was a bit shy and hung out by the door until a very nice lady named Carolyn asked me if I was new. Well, I guess I stood out like a sore thumb, but she grabbed my hand and said I needed to learn. What did I want to learn drop spindle or wheel? I chose drop spindle. She was so nice, she gave me some of her roving and loaned me a spindle. Before long I was feeling pretty good about my ability. Carolyn thought so too and dragged me into the middle of the circle to show off what I had done. Here is my first "skein" that I spun at the meeting.
I joined the guild and was able to sign out the spindle for some much needed practice at home. I also bought this cute roving called "frost." I am pretty excited about this and It's going to be a fun place to hang out! I can't wait until next month for the next meeting!!!
