This yarn, along with some more I have yet to spin, will be knit into a throw pillow. I wanted this homespun to be a worsted weight yarn. It was good practice to shoot for a particular size, though I missed it a bit. Since gauge is not critical for my project, I'm more than happy with the bulky weight I ended up with...the knitting will go faster.

You really are getting good!
ReplyDeleteThe yarn looks so pretty, and I really like the color too!
ReplyDeleteNice job....spinning is one of the things I want to learn. Look forward to seeing your pillow.
ReplyDeleteIt's so rewarding to make a yarn that you're thinking "hey, this is good!" :)
ReplyDeleteNice job! That looks just like the Rambouillet I am spinning. Nice and squishy! My husband wants fingerless gloves out of it.
ReplyDeleteThat looks much better than just "good enough"! You're really picking spinning up quickly.
ReplyDeletewonderful yarn! I love the color too.
ReplyDeleteYour yarn really is beautiful! It's hard to believe you've only been at it since December. That gives me hope...Oh and thanks for sharing the wonderful "beach" pics. The eggs are such in great find.
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great! I've only been spinning about a month longer than you and while it came pretty quickly to me too, I agree - the learning is never over. I think that's the appeal of it!
