Jillian’s Spinning: Spinzilla, How’d You Do?

2015 Spinzilla
2015 Spinzilla

My yardage this year was modest, under a pound and 1,521 yards. I wanted to do more but life just wasn’t having it! I had travel, a sick kid, a migraine, you know, life. But I was happy every single time I sat down at my wheel, and I squeezed in an afternoon spinning with friends. Those two things alone made Spinzilla a win for me.

How did you do and what did you learn?

Jillian is the​ author of the best-selling spinning book Yarnitecture. She is the editor​ of Knittyspin and Developmental Editor for PLY and PLY Books. She kinda loves this spinning thing and wants everyone who spins to love it too, so she teaches and writes a lot. She knits, weaves, and stitches and tries to do as much of it as she can with handspun yarn. She's always cooking up all kinds of exciting and creative things combining fiber arts. She likes her mysteries British, her walks woodsy, and to spend as much time as she can laughing. Spy on her on her website jillianmoreno.com

    I found myself hastily digging through my stash at 9 PM on Sunday because my week’s spinning came up 4 yards short of a mile. I did not come that close just to miss! I hadn’t expected to even come close… and meanwhile I’m just flabbergasted by the people on my team who spun 4, 5, 7 miles.
