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!
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.

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.
