Isabel
Just realised I haven’t shared my new friend. I “needed” an extra spinning wheel to take to the farm, as there is so much lovely fibre there waiting to be spun. I trawled Ebay and the Ravelry boards to find a nice portable wheel, and I found this lovely upright.
Isabel is a Camelot wheel from New Zealand and has huge capacity bobbins (wonder if she knows I talk about her this way). We haven’t had much chance to play, as I have been trying to get some knitting done to clear the decks prior to Tour de Fleece (Ravelry link).
However, I have done a little bit.
That is some machine wash merino hand-dyed (colourway: ormeau) by Marnie at Ewe Give Me the Knits. I’m hoping it will be a 3ply sock wool when finished.
