I have been a good girl and not bent over backwards to squeeze a blog post in. But I did pick out an old blog post to give you something to read if you want to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On November 20th 2021, one year ago, I wrote about what I do when <a href=\"https:\/\/waltin.se\/josefinwaltinspinner\/fleece-happens\/\">fleece happens<\/a>. You know, when a fleece just comes to you, without you knowing what really happened. The fall shearing is usually the highlight of the year for many spinners in Sweden, fleece happens a lot this time of year. This autumn, for example, fleece has happened thrice for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the post I write about what I do with a fleece when it comes to me, in terms of washing, how I prepare it for storing and what documentation I do, how and where.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will spend the weekend on a gym instructor course for the gym chain where I am an instructor. It will be tough, and I&#8217;m really excited about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>P.S. A week ago I was interviewed by Daniel Howell of Folk Craft revival about spinning.
