**Week3**
As Week 3 begins in this Tour de Fleece, I feel like I've been in a groove... though it will be interrupted due to other activities this coming weekend.
Friday, July 12
No spinning was accomplished.
Saturday, July 13
No spinning was accomplished.
Sunday, July 14 - Challenge Day
Alpaca-ish: Double K Diamond Llamas - Katydid (Huacaya Alpaca+Bamboo): 49 minutes
No specific challenge was attempted today. Though, I did finish plying this single.
Monday, July 15 - Rest Day
TM: Ramen: 19 minutes
I did get a little bit of spinning in today.
Alpaca-ish: Double K Diamond Llamas - Katydid (Huacaya Alpaca+Bamboo):
Wound the finished yarn off the bobbin and gave it a bath. There are 200 yards in 4 5/8 oz of completed yarn here.
Tuesday, July 16
TM: Ramen: 15 minutes
Alpaca-ish: Switzer-Land Paco-Vicuna: 21 minutes
There's only one ounce between these two small balls of roving. This Paco-Vicuna was purchased from the farmer at an Art Show during last year's Estes Park Wool Market.
Wednesday, July 17
TM: Ramen: 56 minutes
Alpaca-ish: Switzer-Land Paco-Vicuna: 30 minutes
I re-wound the ball of roving so that I could spin from the other end, and it is going more smoothly.
Thursday, July 18
TM: Ramen: 34 minutes
I have ~3/8 oz of prepared TM remaining, but I am planning to start plying tomorrow, since it will take at least a couple of days to get the plying completed.
Weekly Status:
There are only 3 days left in this Tour, so I plan to begin plying the Tibetan Mastiff tomorrow. I will aim to complete the Paco-Vicuna single by Sunday, then begin plying after this Tour concludes.
Duration:
- + TM: 4 hrs 20 mins + 2 hrs 4 mins = 6 hrs 24 mins
- + Alpaca-ish: 7 hrs 12 minutes + 1 hr 40 mins = 8 hrs 52 mins
- = Total: 11 hrs 32 minutes + 3 hrs 44 min = 15 hrs 16 mins
Net Days Spun: -1 -2 +1 = -2
Finished Skeins: 0 +1 = 1
Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
