Successful Week 2 for Me Too
I too had a successful week 2 - I had a total of 5 1/4 hrs. of spinning. It was a bit harder to keep up this past week. I did notice something, though. With all the spinning I've been doing, I don't have that many finished skeins (I look in envy at the pictures that Kristi has posted!).
I've been spinning mostly with my wheel. However, this past week, I logged 1 1/2 hrs. of spinning with my drop spindle. I've determined that I'm a VERY slow spinner.....whether with the wheel or with the drop spindle. I should have more finished skeins to show for all the hours! But, then again, I spin for relaxation, so it's OK. So...that's my excuse for no finished skeins (plus, my Louet bobbins are quite big, so it takes a bit to fill them.....especially since I've been spinning quite thin lately.)

Great job, Jinann! I actually think I'm pretty slow as well. Of course it all depends on the fineness of your spinning too! I mostly have finished skeins because I'm not working with huge amounts of fiber. The blue stuff was my largest lot of the same fiber I've worked with at ~9.5 oz. I've actually not filled bobbins before plying. But, for me I'm finding that the motivation to keep spinning is in getting close to having a finished skein. That makes me sit down more often for longer periods.
