Getting Ready for Valentine's

Getting ready for Valentine's Day with a carded batt from Robin Russo's Silk Workshop. Robin's workshop rates an A!

Thanks to Judy's careful attention to feeding the carding machine, I improved my understanding of how to feed a carder.

Spinning from a handcrafted batt never fails to delight the eye and soul.
