I spent most of Australia Day at the local racecourse as part of the Armidale Spinners and Weavers display. There are more pictures over at the guild site, including of me(!). I was spinning up my dyed silk hankies and got quite a bit done. Many of the people who came by were quite fascinated by the process. I had to slow down towards the end of the day as the silk is hard on the hands and I nearly blistered my right middle finger from drawing out the silk.
The results so far sure are looking nice. I can't wait to ply it up and see how it's turned out.
