Getting all productive
I go many months without spinning at all, and then suddenly *bam* I can't get enough.
The green and blue stuff is the Jenny-coloured sliver I spun a few days ago, and the beige is a natural coloured fleece which I got a sample of (this 70g or so is all I have) done in a 2 ply. I know it's messy, but I like having the big fat messy bits in there, so that when it's knitted up you can see that it's handspun.
The other thing I'm playing round with is the chunky cream stuff that I spun the other night... it's not going to be cream for much loooooonger! :-)

Re making lumps so you can see it's handspun, that makes complete sense to me. A male acquaintance wears bow ties the same way: always with a slight asymmetry so that you can tell they're hand-tied.
