I'm published!

Gotcha!  

Well, I'm not published, but the handspun is mine.  It's Wool Candy Blue Faced Leicester Top in "Cobbler".

I created this mock magazine cover for a photography class homework assignment.  The assignment was to create a magazine cover shot properly lit and also composed to allow for text and all the other stuff that goes on those covers.

Here's the photo without the text.   Not the composition I would ordinarily choose if it was just a photo.

Here's another mock cover with my new Bosworth spindle which I purchased at Madrona.  This spindle will hold a special place in my heart.  It's the spindle I was using in Amelia Garripoli's "Productive Spindle Spinning" class when I graduated from "park and draft".   I didn't think I'd ever be able to draft as the spindle spun (Is there a technical term for this?  "Spindle spinning", perhaps?).  I think this breakthrough was a combination of Amelia's teaching skills and my nifty new spindle.

And in case you're wondering, the fiber is Blue Moon Sheep 2 Shoe in "Sam and Ella".

Spin on!
