I have loved the idea of spinning since I was a little girl but only just started spinning during Summer 2008! My first three spindles I made, then bought a few. 6 weeks later, after test driving the spindles with 4 different fibers, I knew I was a Spinner. I placed an order for a Louet Julia on a Friday and the following Wednesday, it was here, begging to be put to use. Since then, I literally live for Spinning.
