I had no roving :( so but I wanted to experiment with my spindle so I tried my hand at spinning some 2 ply weaving cotton together. I spun 4 strands of the 2 ply together and produced this which I haven't wrapped it to see how much wpi but it looks like a thick worsted or a thin bulky. I can already see that this spinning thing takes coordination. My strands at times are overtwisted, and at other times, under twisted. . . It's kind of fun though so I'll be looking to experiment more when I finish up some other projects!
