Tour de Fleece Day 9: A fair day for the fair

I may have to massage my hands with liniment tonight because today I spun aaaaalll daaay loooong. I was at the Marion County Fair a second time for the full day, demonstrating spinning to anyone who came by and was interested.

Me 'n the Ladybug are in the back there, along with Shelly, Betsy, Kelly, and Helen:

In that time I spun up over an ounce of my merino and silk blend from Dicentra Designs:

Nearly done with the first 2.1 ounce hank of top, and still debating whether to spin the second on the same bobbin or ply this first.

It looks fantastic! All the years I lived in Wales I so wanted to learn to spin but never found the time. Can't wait to see what you knit it into.
