I was gifted a bin of yarn on Thanksgiving, but it's all lace and fingerling weight, which I don't ever use. So, I decided to see if I could ply it again and make it into something I will actually use.

I love the colorway of this yarn so much! It's a long gradient that goes from blue on one end to green on the other. However, this is not my most consistent spin. 😟 It goes from a lace weight to a worsted, but it's yarn, and it will make something pretty! #handspinning #fiberart #spinningyarn

Every time I spin yarn, I think "oooh, this is my favorite that I've made." So please take that into consideration when I say...

This is my favorite spin ever!

Finished this last week, but was feeling too lazy to take a picture. It's 100% Corridale wool, measuring at 204 yards of 2 ply sport weight(ish) yarn. I really do love these colors, they just make me happy.

Finished the first single, and I'm a little over halfway through the second. I'm itching to see how this turns out!

Dyed some roving for my next spin, and I'm obsessed with these colors! 😍

I finished spinning the awful yarn, and now it needs to sit on the bobbin and think about what it's done. In the meantime, I'm crocheting this cool front and back post pattern.

No new spinning progress to post, so here's a throwback to a slasher film shadowbox I made for my husband a couple of years ago.

On to the next project! This yarn will be a Merino/Dorset/Lama wool blend that I'll dye after it's been spun. The Dorset has a short staple length, so hopefully the lama will balance it out in the spin. If not, I'll be filled with regret very soon... wish me luck!

I love this yarn so much! It's not the most consistent I've spun, but the colors create such a cool effect. Up close you see all the colors, but far away it's a variegated purple.

One of my last spins start to finish. I sent off the completed skein to a friend, she said she's going to knit some socks with it 🥰

My singles are finished! They get to rest for a bit, but then I should be able to ply and set the yarn in a day or two. I can't wait to see what it looks like when it's finished!

Yarn is 100% Corridale wool, hand dyed and spun by me 🥰
