Spinning yarn
I have found a new love in the art of spinning yarn. It’s taken me a few skeins to work out how to get decent yardage (the very first skein was 30 yards, and I’ve worked up to 106 now) but I don’t think they are bad for the first yarns I have ever spun. Without further adeau:
carnivale – this is the 2nd yarn I spun using commercially dyed mernio with about 5% tencel and 15% new zealand top wool, approx. 50 yards
Ocean breeze 100% merino commercially dyed in shades of blues/greens mixed with cream approx 65 yards
Frightful – 90% merino 15% new zealand top, commercially dyed, plyed with cotton thread approximately 65 yards
Autumn Fire, merino in red/goldenrod/harvest orange/espresso ply with a commercial merino/micro acrylic, 110 grams 106 yards,
