Spinning and Knitting

I've been spinning a rainbow.  I was running out of space on my bobbin so I had to break it up into 2.  It's thicker then my usually spinning and more nubs from the fiber.



I finished one of my test knits and working on another.  I need to stop signing up for them.  I will be sample knitting so that will put some of my projects on the back burner.  I so need to finish up some gifts and work on my business plan!

Spinning A Rainbow!


I finally got all the fiber prep done and started on the red.  I got 2 bags of fiber from Becoming Art.  A hot rainbow and a cool rainbow.  I've been lusting over the gradient yarns.  I want to spin this up to my own rainbow and who knows what I'll knit with it when I'm done.




Oh, I finished my 50% merino and 50% yak.  I got 193 yards of fingering weight (19WPI) out of the 2.8 oz.  I now wish I had gotten more.
