Wool nests

Flick carded and then drum carded locks from some of my sheep's  fleece which I washed and stored some time ago.
I'm flick-carding the locks then adding them to the drum carder to make a batt then dividing the batt in four and winding each quarter into a fluffy nest.

I'm looking forward to spinning these using short forward draw to make a semi worsted (though could be semi woolen - I confuse the two) later this evening.
