I’ve had the Ashford eSpinner3 for about three weeks now and I have spun a little bit of yarn on it.

The first yarn that I spun was from old partially felted batts that I had laying around. I don’t even know what the fiber is, but I spun it up in a lumpy rope single, felted it, and I am now knitting a hat.  We’ll see how that goes. Here’s some of that yarn:

The other yarn I took more care in making. It’s spun from Romney roving that I had processed last year, and it’s just lovely. Nancy from New Aim Farm in Waldoboro, Maine washed, picked, and carded it for me last December and did such a wonderful job. It spins like butter and made a really nice yarn.

I have ten pounds of this roving, so the eSpinner will be very busy.
