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.

40/40/20 Merino/SW Merino/Silk
I finished this yesterday. I was surprised how it came out. I guess I was expecting more white. Below is a picture of the fiber. I got 397 yards of 26 WPI. A light fingering weight.

Fiber, Yarn and Future Yarn

I had my eye on this fiber for a while and decided to get it. It's from Bee Mice Elf. It's 4oz of Targhee in the colorway Winterberry.It took me the weekend to finish plying this yarn. It's Loop! Kaleidoscope Eyes Sparkle 10.8oz which I managed to get 870 yards of light fingering. It took a while just to get it off the bobbin!
On the Minispinner is Cloudlover M/SWM/Silk Tesla Coil (that is merino, superwash merino & silk). It's only 4 oz. I have another 8oz of JulieSpin fiber I want to spin up but I'll wait a bit before tackling that much fiber at once.
