It’s something that I definitely want to try at some point.

About color: I am using my stash of vintage acrylic to make log cabin baby blankets for charity. I have been playing around with color combos and have found it quite interesting. Right now I am working on a monochromatic pink blanket. It’s very interesting how some colors go well together, but add a third color and they clash.

I’ve just started myself, and I love it. My first spindles are Bosworths, excellent light-to-medium weight spindles that have a beginner-friendly, long spin time. I find that spinning has made me much more aware of colour, actually. Just this weekend I bought Deb Menz’ Color in spinning. I’ve just started reading it, and it’s an amazing resource. I’m already planning numerous spinning projects in my mind.

Now that Alpaca Silk at A Verb for Keeping Warm is begging me to buy it, and I am on a strict yarn diet so I will have to ignore its pleading calls. Sob, sniff. I blame you for this!
