Today's Spinning almost fills first bobbin

Today I carded and spun up the 18 locks of Somemore's fleece, that I washed yesterday. My first bobbin is very close to being full. Before I started spinning I weighted the batt I had carded from these 18 locks and the batt weighted 1 3/8 ounces and yesterdays batt weighted 3/4 ounces. So I've spun up 2 1/8 ounces so far of Somemore's Fleece. My bobbin when empty weights 2 ounces, so I'm figuring that my bobbin weights 4 1/8 ounces right now.


I washed 18 more locks of Somemore's fleece again today. This way I can card and spin more wool. I haven't even made a dent in the bag of fleece yet, but that's okay. This way I'll have wool to spin for quite a while to come. LOL
