I've spun up my Cuckoo Batt Blue Streak fiber onto two 1.5 oz Kundert spindles. I'm plying them with my Hydrangea All-Day lollipop spindle (a gift from my sister, Teresa) and my Flagship Lizzie Kate. I like how the yarn is turning out at about 12 wpi. I have ordered an additional batt as I quickly realized I would not have enough yarn to make a hat. Nikol was also kind enough to let me upgrade the rest of my Cuckoo Club Batts so I will now receive two batts. This club had sold out long ago and I am grateful she was able to accommodate my request for more fiber. I look forward to seeing what Nikol has created for February.

That shade of blue is great, and I love the Lizzie Kate.
Question: Do you always stand when drop spindling, or do you get to do it from your seat? This is the thing that keeps me from doing much drop spindle spinning, as I want to sit if I am going to spin for a long period.

I think that is going to look real pretty when it's finished.
