Spindling Project
While I'm primarily a wheel spinner, I always have a project in progress on my one good spindle. It's almost always 50/50 merino/silk which I like to spin at a laceweight.
This is hand dyed fibre from "Fleece Artist". The spindle is bloodwood and ebony from "Spindlewood Co". Although I had just gone through a darker bronze bit which you see on the spindle, the braid is mostly the golden to rosy colour.

Spindling Spring Colour
On the spindle: Handdyed Merino Sliver by Fleece Artist.
The braided roving was quite compact from the dyeing process (perhaps a little felted?) so I had to predraft quite carefully and I'm still finding it necessary to "park and draft" some stubborn sections.
