  • This is how I prepare hand dyed fibre for spinning. It’s so satisfying floofing out the fibre & feeling it go from coarse to a literal cloud.

  • Finally finished the impromptu b&w yarn project. This started out as just learning support spindling with random fibre & turned into a mission for pretty yarns. Skeins are 4ply worsted weight stricken white scandi, black welsh, & ‘Licorice’ (striken white scandi/black welsh) wool. These yarns are destined to become a knit triangle shawl.

  • Completed measuring and skeining all the spins from the last few months. There are hundreds of yards/meters of yarn here. My absolute favourite is merino/alpaca/camel/silk blend as it’s like touching a cloud.

  • 3 days of work and everything has been pulled off the spindles & prepped for plying. The yellow is still a singles ball as that’s my Easter Show competition spin waiting for the red alpaca to finish resting.
