Think I'll get it spun?


Look what arrived in today's mail!!!
MORE Spinderella Thrums! This is their "Alderman" colorway which appeared more purplish to me in their pictures. You can see alot of the blue in one bump, but it really spins up more grey flannel-ish with all sorts of fun lil' bits.

How do I know this? HA! I already started spinning a bit!-LOL!
I didn't say 'mohair' in the description and this batch didn't have labels, so I have no idea if there is any mohair in it. The last batch of "Breeze" thrums I purchased hadn't mentioned the "M" word, but when I got it, the tag had it checked off. I am suspicious there is some in this colorway, too...I guess I can email them and ask, but it's not as if I'm sending it back or anything! It spins up quickly, but I'm not trying to keep it even or slubby; it just has so much pieces of bits in it that it is doing slubs. Very fluffy (yes, I fear mohair...)...As far as my lungs giving it away, it is hard to tell since my asthma has been aggravated by a lingering cold or infection.
I ordered two bumps...this is ALOT of fleece for this drop-spindling newbie!
