Maybe not 10 minutes, but in bits of time stolen from each day during the past week, I've manged to clean off many bobbins and in the process, finish over 1800 yds of yarn.
clockwise from top: white alpaca 3 ply using the navajo ply, charcoal alpaca carded with a cream merino silk blend 2 ply, and a brown wool carded with white merino silk blend 2 ply.
It sure feels good to have those bobbins cleaned off and ready for a new project. Most of this was sitting around for over a year, maybe two. Housekeeping of the best sort. Now to soak them and hang to dry.

And as a bonus, they’re LOVELY!
Beautiful skeins! Very satisfying housecleaning. 🙂
This is my kind of housecleaning: much more fun than dusting and washing windows! And lovely besides.
Those little bits of time sure add up! 1800 yards? Yippee!
I don’t have enough bobbins for any of them to languish. Before I can start a new spinning project, I have to finish the old one. Which is good, I guess – otherwise my spinning UFOs would rival my knitting UFOs.
Must resist the urge to buy more bobbins…
Lovely yarn!
Beautiful yarn; and so refreshing to take back all those bobbins!
Pretty! And doesn’t it feel great to get things moving along!
Nice 🙂 I better organize myself as I’ve got my Matchless’ bobbins full and needing to be plied if I’m to take it this weekend.
Lovely skeins! Beautiful blends!
Now … on to fill up those bobbins again 😉
They look so soft and cushy… What will you make with them?
I am trying to finish up spinning a wool/silk blend that I started 3 years ago! I have spun other things in between but I’m determined this time to finish and knit with it. Congrats on clearing out.
