This is my blog for my new business. I've been knitting since Feb 2009 after a break of 15+ years. I first learned from books but picked up again since my friend dyed the most beautiful yarns and I just couldn't collect them. I started to spin in Aug 2010 on a spindle and then on a Hansen Minispinner since Oct 2010. I started to weave Sept 2014 on an Emilia Glimakra Rigid Heddle Loom. I've been test knitting since 2011 and a sample knitter since 2016.

Tussah Silk
It's my first time spinning 100% Tussah silk. My favorite is 50% silk and 50% merino. I really like the 100% silk. This is Glacier from JulieSpins. Much nicer then the Black Alpaca with all that vegetative matter (VM). Here is a picture of it. I got 249 yards sports weight.
