While it doesn't really give you anything functional, the roving is great to learn on because it catches easily and is easy to pre-draft. I spent about five hours one night playing around with a borrowed spindle, but I definitely prefer spinning on my wheel. You know, HCW has a bunch of wheels in Knit Buzz that are free to use. If you want we could meet up sometime and I could try to show you how a wheel works! Yep, Corriedale.

I bought I spindle from there a while back and the lady suggested I get Corriedale to use. I don't really find it all that easy. Also, kinda scratchy, what on earth would you use the resulting yarn for? I used it to make stripes in a kitty pi. There was a spinning 101 class I really wanted to take, but I work on weekends. They don't have any other wheel classes until September. Woe is me. Did they make you use Corriedale on the drop spindle?
