It’s Tour de Fleece time again! It is from July 1st through July 23, we spin each day the bikers are riding on the Tour de France. We just choose how much time we’ve decided we are going to spin each day they ride, 15 min or an hr, it’s up to us, with days off when they take their rest days off.
Above are the fibers I’ve chosen. I doubt I will get through them all as I have a tiny bit to finish already on my wheel and then to ply that, so that should be my first day. The first one is a Cormo and Rambouillet cross (brown) from SheepSymphony on Etsy, I bought a 2.34 lb processed fleece – very good and soft stuff, and the price was amazing!!!! The one next to it is fiber I bought from Camaj Fiber Arts, it is a beautiful tweed called Very Berry Color Pop, it is South American Wool & Viscose bits Blend combed top. The one behind it is also from Camaj Fiber Arts another tweed called Pop Rock (with blue, red, orange, green and purple (so pretty!) also South American Wool and Viscose bits blend top. Those colorful bits will sure pop on there, those tweed fibers are going to make beautiful yarn!!
Those fibres look great. I am less organised but in my head I know what I’ll be spinning.
