probably very lumpy yarn Laughing no seriously I'm just going to spin with some of my large stash of rovings and see what develops. If it goes well I'll knit it up as a wee mat for my dressing table Very Happy I'm hoping that by the end of 2007 I'll be fairly competant and spinning something that can be knitted into socks Very Happy

Good luck with painting the wheel, it isn't that hard, but you have to do it "flat" and then mount it on the frame. I was so nervous of damaging the wheel (not the paint, that could be touched up), I ended up taking it back to Peter to get him to bash the pin in for me!

I haven't done much spinning, yet, I've been busy finishing a shawl Rolling Eyes
