New Spinnings

May 22nd, 2010

I got this beautiful fiber from spin knit and life on etsy. This particular fiber is a blend of merino, corriedale, and domestic wools. It was called Northern Lights, but when I’m done, I hope to rename it “Aurora Borealis” because it sounds a bit more fancy.

I think it will turn out as a lovely yarn, but im still not sure if it should be lace-weight or light fingering.

These are two new yarns that have been spun up recently. The blue is a bulky weight called opequon and only has 18 yards. The calico colored one is a worsted weight called Lucy after my mother’s cat, and is 30 yards.

I hope to do something yarn related every day this year.
