spinning on the hatbox traveller

Here is the first pictures of the new acquisition in action: The Louet Hatbox Traveller, bought from The Netherlands, and lovingly wrapped up and shipped to me.
I think that I'm spinning some combed Ramboulliet roving, which has been dyed with onion skins.
So, I'm not too good at this spinning thing, not a whiz bang like my mother, but, I think that I'm spinning somewhere between lace weight and fingering.
It may be worsted in some spots. I don't know.
The wheel is a bit "pully" and I don't want to keep breaking it, so, this is my test project, and if it doesn't come out all the same, so what.
