Slow Spinning Update

This is the first half of the skein of what will be fingering weight yarn from the combed Corriedale fiber (Tim). There are probably many ways to do this, but what I do is to weigh out each half of the skein. The basket below is holding 2.3 ounces of combed fiber. The spool above is holding the exact same amount. When I finish spinning the fiber in the basket I will ply the two spools together. This wool is spun worsted with a short forward draw as opposed to the long backward draw of woolen.
