First I got more of the swedish rya wool I was spinning earlier, spun woolen it turns out fairly course but nice for socks. Spun worsted it's shiny and smooth, I've got a 50 gr skien that is going to become a beaded shawl.

From the same breeder I got some mixed breed (rya and swedish fine wool) wool that is sooo very soft, 10 cm long fibers, and absolutely full of grease... I spun a small amount in the grease with very good results, easily spun, very soft. Unfortunately all that grease really messes up my wheel... I have washed a couple locks, we'll see how that spins up.

Then I found some GORGEOUS Gotland wool. I just couldn't resist it..
