So I was having a fiber pity party and wanting some fiber to love on....and decided to go through my stash before I spent money.
I found this lovely 8 ounces of BFL that I had purchased from Dizzy Sheep the last time they had fiber. (I want them to have some more fiber up for the daily special!)
Anyway, I couldn't remember the name of this colorway, but I am calling it Fire Roasted Lasagna :) The pictures do not do it justice. It is full of rich yellows, oranges, reds and brown (almost black) and has a little salmon stripe too.

I love it! I'm so happy with the colors coming from this fiber. What I spun is a little bit that I did to show a group of 4 year olds what a spinning wheel can do. I was invited to go and talk to a Pre-K class about wool and spinning.
I love doing that. I took 3 spindles and let them each have a turn at spinning. We played with raw fleece (that was hilarious...the looks on their face when they smelled the lanolin), we played with locks, I demonstrated hand cards and knitting.
We just had a wonderful time and hopefully at least one will keep that spinning spark in them!
Now....I'm still going to have to buy some fiber to quench that need :)
