I've not had as much chance to spin as I would have liked, but I'm making progress on the Cloudy with a Chance of Summer fibre as you can see. This is the first two singles and I started the third last night. The tour doesn't end until 24 July, so I should still finish. One bobbin appears to have more yarn than the other but I'm hoping that's some sort of illusion since I weighed everything super carefully and have been doing my best to keep an even diameter on the singles. I'm hoping there won't be too much left at the end of any of the bobbins though I guess if there is anything left I can chain ply the last bits so that none of the fibre is wasted. Aiming to complete the remaining single by Thursday so it can rest on Friday and Saturday and be plied and have its bath on Sunday.
That leaves a week to spin the batt for the Tour part of the challenge. That only weighs 50 grammes, so it should be manageable in a week even allowing for a day or two to rest the singles before plying.
