Visual Aids

Since the last post was really light on pictures -- none -- I thought I'd add a couple here to show you the yarn I'm spinning right now. I sent Susan of "Susan's Spinning Bunny" a picture of the yarn I made with her Targhee roving in her Hibiscus colorway and she put it on her shop's website. Cool!

I started the Merino/Mohair in the same colorway last night and it's a dream to spin. You could tell the Targhee would make a springy cuddley yarn. This Merino/Mohair is more elegant. It has a sheen and a silky smooth feel. I'm finding that I'm unintentionally spinning it more finely than I did the Targhee. This will be a problem when I try to make a project out of the five different samples!

I also can't wait to dive into the hand dyed baby llama Susan sent as the first installment of "Fondle This," the spinning fiber of the month club. It's gorgeous! So much spinning, so little time.
