good-natured ribbing

I’ve spun a little of the wool I picked up in Chicago and I think it is coming out pretty nicely. I wasted a bit becaue the tension was off on the wheel and didn’t spin enough to hold the fibers together. Here it is so far:

I think I might make a 2-ply yarn out of this. Typically this is done by filling two bobbins then spinning back onto a third. My old wheel only has one bobbin and it doesn’t come off (or go back on) reliably. So I am going to have to wind the single ply into balls first then work from that. We’ll see how it goes!
