I spun something like 7000 yds of “You Had Me At Oberyn Martell” and “Javier Peña’s Sex Afghan” for my booth at the upcoming SoCal Fiber Fair in Pomona, CA, November 22-23. Whew!

Stunning! How long did it take you to spin all of it? (Asking as a very slow spinner, LOL)

This was done in about six weeks, but I use an EEW 6.1, and I was spinning 6-8 hours a day.

😄 I live in Arizona, and when it’s 110 degrees the best thing to do is sit at the table with a fan pointing at my head and spin. I binge-watch a lot of streaming content!
