Great sliver

Anne has been weaving steadily on the RSotB Rug and is nearing completion of the first one (of a pair).  A continuous supply of roving/sliver is necessary and she has become very adept at producing it.  From my reading sliver is similar to roving but without a slight twist - I have found no definition is absolute. Regardless, with some fineness a batt can be stretched out to produce just the right thickness of sliver that can then be wound onto the ski shuttle ready for weaving.  My sliver is a little more rushed (all I have ever needed for spinning - in my defence), and needs more work when actually doing the weaving as the idea is to get 4 weft shots that are reasonably 'even.'

Perfect sliver
