Monday Night Knit Night

before...

I'm going to attempt to work on my spinning on Mondays. Not quite a "Mondays are for Spinning" thing, but just to work through the fibre I have.

Fibre:
Midnight Magic 80% Merino Colour Blend / 20% Silk roving from Aurelia Wools
Singles WPI: 24-30 (it's a bit uneven)
Twist angle: 25 - 30%

Box of Fluff

I predrafted this roving. When I have a shoe box full of fluffiness, I spin. I'm finding it a bit difficult to find just the right amount of twist for this particular roving. It's frequently breaking at underspun points. But after an hour of spinning this evening, it's breaking less often.
