Tour de Fleece - Spinners/Crafters
Tour de Fleece/Tour de France
Time frame: July 5-27
For the first time in many years, Ewe and I is going to join the Tour de Fleece race! You may be asking yourself, what the heck is Tour de Fleece?! It came about as a way for spinners to set a personal goal and try to spin as much as they can during the bicycle race Tour de France. Over the years this has grown into an annual event around the globe. Participants will set their own personal goal and report on their progress weekly. Your personal goal could be: spinning for so many minutes per day, spinning for yardage, consistency, or plying that backlog of singles. The possibilities are endless!
Ewe and I will join the Ravelry Tour de Fleece as a Wild Card team.
Anyone can join regardless of fiber craft choice. The premise is you spin (or craft) every day the tour is on. Rest when they rest. Challenge yourself when they are in the mountains. Your challenge could be learning a new technique or spinning/crafting longer than you usually would. Have a goal in mind and join the race!
Keep track of your progress and report it so it can be added to the leaderboard on the Ewe and I website and on the Ravelry Tour de Fleece page.
Prizes will be drawn on Rest Days.
