My computer is currently not working (I took it to be fixed, but it's been a week already and I don't know when I get it back) so my internet access is very erratic.

Our spinalong ends in a week and there will be prizes Smile If you have spun even one yarn during this summer and posted pictures on the forum, I'll put your name in the hat. My sons will each draw one name from the hat, and the lucky winner will get something nice to spin with.

Now, it would be very helpful to me if you could enter your name on this thread if you have spun something. Normally I would check the threads myself, but I'm borrowing computer from DH and don't want to stay online too long because it's rather unpolite to come to visit and spend all my time on knitting forums...  Rolling Eyes

So if you qualify for the raffle, please post here and tell if there is a specific fiber you'd like to try or if you are allergic to something. I can either post your prize or bring it to I Knit show.

ooooo, I love prizes.  I've spun something each month.   Laughing   thanks for organising this Hanne.   Very Happy  

I'm allergic to mohair and angora, and can't use anything too scratchy as I have sensitive skin.   Rolling Eyes

I finsihed some spinning in June and July and have spun this month but not finsihed a skein yet and probably won't.

I also offered prizes so when you've done the draw, let me know, Hanne and I'll liaise with the winner re prize. Don't know what I offered now but just let me know Hanne.

How wonderful ladies, well done!
Glynis, was that your first spinning too?

A big *HUG* to Hanne for being so kind and generous too

Absolutely yes, a BIG HUG for Hanne Smile

Franney it was my first on a wheel and my first plied (plyed?) yarn. I had been practising with my increasingly beloved drop-spindle.
