St. Distaff's Day - Start the year spinning

We had a great time at R. Rabbit's Fiber Studio celebrating the beginning of the New Year and enjoying our love of spinning yarn.  Maud and Pam came down from Vinton and learned to spin on a wheel.  Thanks to Chris Rhonda for their guidance.
 Here JoAnne and Sarah and enjoying the lovely thick handspun, merino yarn that Sarah is using in her warm hat.  JoAnne is knitting with merino as well which she spun very fine for the shawl she is knitting.
 My best friend, Rhonda, from college in Colorado came out on the bus to spend several days with me.  Here she and Pam are working on spinning wool on a wheel. 
 Finally, here is the producation line.  Jody, Rhonda and Maud spinning away.
Thanks to everyone who came by and enoyed the day with us.
