Good morning Susan,
"My package arrived yesterday and the spindles are beautiful! Please thank Jim for me. They are quite a bit lighter than what I had, and far more lovely. I started spinning with the hi- whirl this morning and you can see what I have so far. The bag is perfect and the fiber is a gorgeous color. I am dreaming about what to knit with it already. Thanks again."

Beginner's Spinning Kit 
"I also wanted to give you feedback on the “beginner” spinning kit you sell. The spindle in your kit is awesome! Beautiful wood, beautifully finished, a joy to use. It spins easily, and long enough to allow a new spinner time to work on learning to draft the fibers. I appreciate the fact that the spindle is a “midweight”, allowing exploration of spinning a wide variety of yarn weights, instead of the heavy spindle so many other “beginner” kits use. The brown Corriedale roving and the coordinating dyed Colonial top inspired my first project – I’m plying the two together. How exciting to make a custom yarn!
Thank you for helping me to get started on such a rewarding artform."
