Good choice. When is it supposed to arrive?

My current favorite is my Golding 3". Just bought a Greensleeves Loki I'm spinning some camel down on, very nice.

I got it on Monday!! She shipped it on Saturday too! There was a back order and email issues but I am SOOOO thrilled with it.

I've already spun some of my Lisa's Knit BFL on it and am LOVING it!!!!

I thought I lost my camera battery charger but found it last night so when I get home tonight I will be showing it off

Spunky has 'em...don't look at the fiber though...

I just picked up a 3" 2.2oz hi-lo from my lys yesterday $16.50! What's the best way for a beginner to learn, hi or lo?

I tried mine as a low and it worked, not bad for my first time, I'll have to post pics tomorrow but would really like to try it as a high, seems like that would be easier.

I just posted 2 pics here on post #7. what do you think?
I like using it as a hi much better! I want to order another one and some pretty fiber from lisa soazy (sp)...
