... so to speak .This is the sum total of my spinning practice for this week . At this rate pigs will be flying before I get enough knitable yarn .

I've never spun, so I can't help you there. Love the new yarns, I so like tweeds. :)
Not a spinner either. No help here.
I love your new yarns and I think that I have that cowl favourited! It will be gorgeous in that colour!
