Fiber Fun Day

Yesterday, Linda had us over for Fber Fun Day.  What is Fiber Fun Day?

There was dyeing of fleece and fiber.

There was lots of spinning.

We had our own Fiber Bus full of fiber to try and buy.

For extra fun, there was drum carding.

I didn’t do any dyeing, but I did take an opportunity to play with the drum carder.  I carded some yellow and blue merino top that I dyed a month or so ago into this big fluffy batt.

I also purchased some fiber and carded up these watermelon colored batts. I used a nice rosey pink-red and a neon green. I also mixed in some sparkly firestar to give it some flash.
