The weather is warming & warming..........

It's supposed to be near 95 tomorrow and 100 0n Friday - ah yes, when we get it, we GET it! I hope the poor garden doesn't go into shock. I need to finish my beet cage (keeping out leaf miners).



I finished up spinning the last of the roving for the Tour de Fleece last evening:















Well, as plying goes, I apparently am not very good :~( - much of my plied yarn is overspun - well, come to think of it, much of my singles were overspun, too.
Here are photos of the plied yarn: on the spindle and tied up into a skein off of the niddy noddy. I got ~ 144 yards, I think - it wrapped 72 times around my niddy noddy which has an 18" length, so 4 X 18 X 72 = 144, right?
