This is my second handspun! It went much easier than my first try - which I have not shown here yet. By the way, the owner of this blog doesn't follow rules or order - if you haven't noticed before.
Fiber: Targhee
From: Emmett Dyeworks at the 2012 Royal Alpaca Challenge (Stone Mountain, Georgia)
Wraps per inch (WPI): 9
Yarn Weight: worsted
Yardage: ?? (oops, I misplaced my tag)
The colors remind me of the ocean back home. The Caribbean sea that I took for granted so many ears and now I miss so much!
What to do with the handspun? Common sense is yelling at me to get the yardage before selecting a pattern. Right side of my brain is dreaming to cast on a cowl.

Wow, for being a new spinner, that is beautiful. Looks well balanced. Well done you!
ReplyDeleteThank you my friend. Spinning (or even learning to spin)is fun...!
DeleteSo pretty. I've just made my first "proper" handspun after my beginner skein (of which no mention will be made - ahem). It's in pretty greens too! I think I will be making mitts with mine.
