I know it's more usual to post pretty projects, but for the beginning spinners who are perhaps feeling like their spinning will never be as nice as stuff they've seen in-person or on the net, here's a pic of what's either my first or second successful attempt at spinning on my own (I think the class stuff stayed in the classes I took at Pennsic).

Uneven, slubby, and still crimped because I never bothered to set it. I've actually taken it and hung it up just now, since it may not be pretty but it could still be useful. I think it's useful to have an idea of where you started; gives you an idea of how you're progressing. Plus it's useful to show to people when they're taking their first lessons ;)
