That's my Jenkins Kingwood Jay (with Lark shaft beneath) holding some pretty blue sample fiber two-ply I just finished (I brought the singles), another yummy sample of BFL/silk to spin, and three little balls of two-ply. I brought the needles and pattern to whip those all up into Top Down Mini Raglan sweaters. I think I'll use that baby blue first, and leave it here for a "baby's first Christmas" ornament for my nephew. :-)

What a wonderful idea!!! I've seen travel sewing kits, first aid kits, all kinds of kits, but never a spindle kit! Very cool.
