Here it is. The first yarn finished on the new Ladybug.

@ 346 yards, 2-ply

Overspun in some places, underspun in others (mostly when I was beginning). Definitely underplied in some spots. Such dark fiber is maybe not the best choice for learning to spin on the wheel. That said, I feel pretty good about the finished yarn. I love the Ladybug! Now to pick the next braid. 🙂

I do love spinning, spindle or wheel. Although the wheel is my favorite right now. 🙂

That is a beautiful skein of yarn. BFL is a good fiber choice for your first wheel project. It’s very forgiving. And a lot of the inconstancies will disappear when you knit or weave with the yarn.
Since I’ve gotten my wheels, I’ve barely touched my spindles. 😦

Thank you. I was comfortable with BFL on my spindles and I hoped it would carry over to the wheel. I’ve neglected my spindles too.

Congratulations! I looks beautiful. I’m so jealous of people who spin. One day, I’ll have the time to pick it up.

I started on spindles. It’s an easy way to see it you’d like to spin. 🙂
