Pack the spindle

I probably went a little far wrapping the plied yarn around this spindle, but I was determined to get it all on. Me? Stubborn? Ha.

Packed drop spindle

I was determined to get it on one spindle so it would be easier to use my wool winder. It was easier, and the cake made by the wool winder is easier to draw yarn from than a ball (for me that is).
