I am still feeling my hand muscles from gripping the wool combs all weekend.
I now know that I am totally spoiled in regard to properly prepared fibre - I was not really having fun with that yucky commercially prepared Merino top. So little fun (and so much yuck), in fact, that I did much prefer to make me a quick, not-very-well-done bit of top on my combs to do demonstration spinning.
Just in case that you (like me) have not yet seen pictures of how silk throwing to get organzine actually works, the process is explained (with pics) on WormSpit's blog.
Oh, and this little blog has gained its 100th "follower" - welcome! This does feel like a real milestone for me.
