Spinning wheels and spindles are now whirling while spinners are creating lots of lovely yarns. Teams are formed, mostly on Ravelry, and goals are set. (You're a knitter and not on Ravelry? Get over there! It's free to join and a wonderful resource for knitters and crocheters!)
The team I am on is called Team Golden Willow (after our favourite LYS). Our team is fairly laid back when it comes to setting goals; set your own goal and just have fun!
My goal this year is to simply spin a little bit every day. I'm using my Tabachek top whorl spindle, and this lovely fibre I got in March from The Wacky Windmill. It was for a March Spin-a-long, but I didn't get started on it until later. I've been puttering at this for a couple of months now, and would like to get it finished by the time the Tour ends.
This picture was taken yesterday at lunchtime.
I might get my spinning wheel oiled and going too. I haven't used it since last year, but I'm feeling like I might get it going again.
What fibrey things have you done today?

Good for you, I'd love to learn how to spin. Your color is gorgeous.
