Spinning thick yarn

It had been hot in October. It was still warm in November but recently it started to feel cool, so it's time to spin.

I cleaned a storage, a.k.a. my room, and found fibers of white wool and grayish brown mohair. I carded them together and started to spin.


I was trying to spin thick yarn but it was difficult. Every time I aimed at thicker yarn, it became bumpy.
It's interesting that when I was a beginner, I couldn't spin thin yarn. Now I get used to spinning, I can't make thick yarn. This seems to be happening to many people.

I somehow managed to finish spinning bumpy yarn, so washed in hot water and dried them.


It's about 500 yards of yarn. Hopefully it's enough to make a vest...
