I encourage my #handspinning students to keep their first #handspunyarn so they have a visual representation of how far their #spinning has come - here’s mine!

This spin turned out well. I love the colors, but if I’m going to use it in colorwork, I’m at a loss as to what solid color to pair it with.

Current test knit from wool I hand spun. 3 different Canadian producers plus a mystery art bat I was gifted during my 1st Tour de Fleece. Almost done the front and back and going to reattach the shoulders soon. @mellyknits.bsky.social
