Well the next part of my spinning experience isn't what I was hoping for :-/
I wound up the yarn from the spindle onto a plastic lid. I made it wet it and let it dry. Then I found out that for plying you have to do it directly from the spindle.
Ok I have now a 1 ply Icelandic wool.
The yarn feels soft before spinning and while spinning. Only after moisten it feels a little coarse ....
I've read about a nøstepinne on which you can wind the yarn into a nice ball..
Because I don't have a nøstepinne I searched for something similar what I have.
This should work.
Next problem was that I didn't have something like a yarn swift and the yarn came of the plastic lid and everything tied together. After minutes.... almost hours I decided to break the yarn so I have at least a small ball..
and the other part? That went into the garbage.
Spinning is learning.
