Tour de France/Tour de Fleece 2021 - Rest Day 2

Cycling: Today is a rest day, so there is no racing today.  

Team Challenge: "It is the second (and final!) rest stop today.  If you need to have a bit of a break, now is your chance!  You may need to stock up on supplies (we need to check the biscuit cupboard), check on how the garden is growing, or just step away from your spinning for a while.  All top athletes need a breather!

If you're looking for a challenge today then why not share a picture of the yarns you have completed so far.  It may be the inspiration needed to help fellow spinners in the last few stages".

What I planned to do and what I achieved:  Monday was rest day again but I combed 421g of washed and dried Welsh Mountain Pedigree fleece and I got 236g from it, obviously this photo shows just a small part of that amount.  


For the rest day challenge, so far I have spun 1189g of yarn.  Top row, left to right: 4 x Portland, 1 x Shropshire.  Bottom row, left to right: 1 x Lincoln Longwool, 3 x Welsh Hill Speckled Face, 1 x Shetland Moorit, 1 x Herdwick.
