Spinning - First Attempt

During mid October I started spinning my first 4 ounce bag ( 113 grams) of merino wool roving, although the below pictures are made up of 2 bags (8.3 ounces - 235 grams). I was given the roving although I can't give the credit to making up this beautiful blend, that honour belongs to the lovely Copperpor Woolies on Etsy. This blend is called Tidal Wave






It's hard to take photos of skeins and get the correct colours but I'm trying. And just for interest this is how Tidal Wave looks in its 'raw' state.

And a big thanks to Copperpot For letting me use this image.
