Hand Spun Wool Locks

This is a trial run spinning my Wensleydale locks.  I can not 'tail' spin as I do not have a Jumbo Flyer and so I have spun each lock on individually and the plied two yarns together.  This is difficult because it gets caught up the whole time.  All very slow but it does give a very different effect.  My grand daughter calls this 'bubbly wool'   I am sending this sample to one of my regular costumers to give it a go and see if it is good enough to sell.  If I were selling this I would have to call it 'Markree Woodland'
