I did get some spinning accomplished since my last Spinning Friday post. I dug into the deep dark recesses of my stash bins and hauled out one of my oldest fibers, a set of two 2-oz batts from Enchanted Knoll, in the "Sari" colorway. These are a blend of superwash merino, silk and sparkle, and a wee bit of loose silk threads.
I have the first 2 oz spun up and have started the second 2 oz of singles.
My plan is to spin this up into a fingering-weight 2-ply yarn, probably for a shawl since it has a lovely shine and drape with just a hint of sparkle to it. We'll see how the weekend treats me (Saturday is forecast cool and rainy for a change, so maybe I'll be indoors a lot), and try to get the singles finished up on this project.
A blog filled with my random musings about sewing, knitting, stitching, reading, and anything else filling my world with wonders.
