Fiber, Fiber, Fiber!

On Monday I washed some suri alpaca fiber.  I left it to dry and yesterday afternoon I began preparing it.
With the help of my Ravelry friends, I decided I would flick card it and save the fluff left behind for hand carding.

So here is the washed and dried alpaca:

Here is what it looked like after I flick carded it:

And here is about a third of the fluff left behind:

It started out as one pound.  So I'm curious how much I will have after spinning it.  I hope to do a little of that this afternoon!!!
