Normally, I don't get much chance to spin at home. I will spin on Wednesdays, at the spinning group that I attend.
I joined the Tour De Fleece 2011 on Ravelry. You are to make a challenge for yourself, to spin during the actual bicycle competition in France. Well, my challenge is to spin 20 minutes a day. That may not seem like much, but it is enough. :) So far, I have been able to finish a skein of yarn, by plying it. I had it spun as a single, but needed to ply it, so I can knit with it. It is now done.
The fiber is a blend of Jacob Sheep and Alpaca. It is a pretty soft yarn. I have 320 yards from 4 oz. I believe it to be about a DK weight, but haven't done the Wraps Per Inch yet.
