I also spent an hour winding a ball of the most fabulous red wool. This photo was taken between skeins. It is so much effort, one is plenty to do at once. I really do wish that I'd asked the shop to do it on their winder - it certainly looks tidier and is more even than my hand-rolled affair. Lovely opportunity to enjoy all the various oranges, pinks and purples that make up this type - Wollmeise 'Rubin' (This means Ruby, but I thought it might mean Robin - not too dissimilar after all.).
