Still making progress on my breed sampling for #spindleBingo2026 over on IG. So far I have got singles ready to ply of Suffolk (lighter grey) and Gotland (darker grey, middle). On the right, in progress spin of Wensleydale which won my “which one next” poll. I like it - it’s beautiful, spins lovely fine, and is easier to spin than the slipper Gotland. #handspinning #spindleposting #fiberarts
