Spinning fiber

I am still spinning the roving I bought from Phylleri Ball.It is mohair from her angora goats,plus wool from her sheep.I know she takes some of her fiber to a mill to be washed & made into roving,then I believe she dyes it herself.I wish I could get caught up on my own.I handwash all of mine in small batches in the kitchen sink.In the winter,I dry the fiber on screens by the woodstove,then card on my drumcarder.Santa didn`t bring me a shed yet,but I hope to have one soon where I can card & work with the fiber somewhere besides my kitchen table.

Aren`t these lovely colors?There are many colorways to go as it is not all one color,but many shades.I tried seperating the blues & greens with the roving,trying for a striped color,but decided I wanted it all blended together.Spinning is so relaxing to me.If I can`t sleep,can`t relax,I just pull the wheel over & treadle my worries away while I meditate.I could almost fall asleep at the wheel.
