All shades of grey
Still fascinated by the BFL. There are other things that I should be doing but I find this spinning hypnotic. So many subtle shades of grey in this BFL.
I tried to photograph my work. I did very badly. I’ll try again another day, when the light is better.
This blurry shot shows the colour variation best (because I shot in RAW and had flash turned off – long exposure and wobbly hands)
But this shot gives a better idea of how well my spinning is doing
and now I really must crack on with getting ready for Sunday, as I shan’t have much time, if any, to spare tomorrow. The sitting room is full of fibrous things… there’s no room to sit down. I haven’t been able to rule out very much as being of no interest for the craft exhibition.

Wow, but that’s really looking good! I doubt you’re old enough to remember the old Virginia Slims commercial, but to quote it: “You’ve come a long way, baby!”
Seriously, you should be feeling good about what you’re doing.
Lovely spinning, lovely coloured BFL -I’m not jealous!!!
It looks so fine and so even!
By the way – what is BFL?
Rhonna, thank you
I doubt you’re old enough to remember
Oh, I wouldn’t bank on it!
Claire – thank you.
Carole – it’s getting there, though a long way from perfect as yet. I’m pleased with my progress.
BFL = Blue Faced Leicester sheep – much prized for its fine fleece
