Yakety Yak

Way back in May of 2007 I purchased some yak down and tried to spin it, unsuccessfully, on my Little Gem wheel.

Well now that I have a charkha I figured I'd give it another whirl (pun intended). Hmmm, still not too good, lots of thick and thin, but better than it was when spun on a wheel. I also have 12 more years of experience spinning! I'll ply the yak tomorrow and call that little experiment done, and happily return to spinning cotton on the charkha.
