Tour de Fleece

Today starts the Tour de France and also the "Tour de Fleece." From the Ravelry Tour de Fleece group: "The concept is simple, They spin, we spin. A real spinning themed spin-along."

I have 1 wheel and 2 spindles that I will be using for the Tour. My spinning wheel is a SpinOlutions Bee, and her name is Beatrice. She folds down to about the size of a sewing maching for easy portability.




With my Bee, who is named Beatrice, I will be starting off by spinning some colonial wool.


I will be spinning some purple colonial wool with my new Trindle:



And lastly, I will be using a student spindle from my friend, Deb, to spin some Knit Picks bare wool that I dyed with food coloring:



Happy Spinning!
