Then carefully measure off an oz and spin it. Ply it, wash it, etc. Then go on and spin something else for a couple of month, then spin up another oz of the wunnerful stuff. When the spinning meets your criteria, you are ready to tackle the rest of that fiber.<BR/><BR/>This is one of the reasons I love to buy whole fleeces and get them processed - I have enough roving for more than one project and it's not *quite* so precious. <BR/><BR/>sandeleh@sbcglobal.netSande Francishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04876881505975645650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13783639.post-40053446932767048952007-03-18T20:33:00.000-05:002007-03-18T20:33:00.000-05:00I just ordered Knitting the Old Way.

I'm in the same boat.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767640948725547960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13783639.post-34713591098694683532007-03-18T10:22:00.000-05:002007-03-18T10:22:00.000-05:00Love that blue yarn!
