More yarns, knit and spun ...

What can I show you today? Well, actually just a few new yarns I've been experimenting with.



1) - silk and wool plied with variegated cotton
2) - wool plied with commercial yarn
3) - random batts of wool plied with variegated wool stocking yarn


And another tube scarf, knitted with the yarns I spun last week (front and back).




I've also been spinning another four bobbins of the blue-green batts for my "Nature pullover" - the back is already knitted as well - pictures of that will follow next week!

(And inbetween, there's laundry to do, food to be bought and prepared, kids to be taken to the doctor, a house to be cleaned - the usual everyday stuff ...)

But tomorrow I'll be heading for the capital to see friends and maybe do some shopping - see you again next week!

Thank you, Paula and Carolyn! Spinning yarn is really very sensuous: now I'm longing for linen and silk and bamboo to spin ...

Love the colors Anneli. The coming winter will be a colorful one.

Have a great weekend.

oohhhh das ist einfach alles herrlich. so witzig-kreativ.
deine spielerische experiment ist wie ein kind dem erlaubt ist im eis-laden von jeder eissorte nach belieben zu kosten, und sein eisbecher zusammenstellen.
man spürt den vollen genuss deiner "arbeit".
