Getting ready for the Tour de Fleece 2015

All the info you could ever need about Tour de Fleece here.

The tour starts on July 4th, but I think I have figured out what I want to spin already. I will probably change my mind about it a bit (a lot) after we start. I hope to do daily picture posts (probably won’t have time to write much).

This is an awesome chance to spin some fiber from some of my favorite suppliers on some of my favorite spindles (and wheels – more about that at a later date).

So far I have fiber from Nunoco, The Double Ewe, Fondant Fibre, Hilltop Cloud, Porpoise Fur (forgot to include that in the picture), and Barber BlackSheep (picture below).

Spindles are from Mirkwood, Bristlecone, FWAussie, Malcolm Fielding, Turtlemade, Buckeye and Woodland Woodworking

I will also be spinning on my wheels (Little G and Big G).
