Southwest Merino Roving

I am hoping some of the pretty colors in the roving show up in this picture. My sweet friend, Mary, purchased this roving while she was on a trip to New Mexico last month. She brought it home and gave it to me to practice on! I can tell you, it is pure pleasure to spin! I enjoy the feel of the fiber as it slides through my hands; it is so soft and drafts so nicely, even for a novice like me. It makes me feel much more confident in my spinning. And while I am spinning it, I am thinking about the friendship that has spun between me and Mary, and what an encourager she has become to me. The mixture of the fiber and the pleasant thoughts make a very pleasant and relaxing afternoon!


Until next time when I hope to have a nice 2 ply yarn from this roving to show to you, happy knitting or spinning or whatever your passion!
