If there ever was a day that I felt that I was spinning my wheels (not spinning on my wheels), it would be today. It happens. I started out skeining up the yarn I’d dyed yesterday so I could shoot pics for the blog. Every batch is different. I know this. I need to learn this lesson everytime I get a batch done. These singles have a much softer feel, they have less twist than the last batch. When I hang them, they hang straight. Not underspun.. but less. When I first started working with last years run, I thought it was overspun. I learned how to work with it and love it. That’s where I stand today. I’m learning this twist.
I dyed three colors. Two of the singles and one two ply. It’s been a battle getting the colors to show right on the computer.
antique rose
merlot and cheese
The color is ‘twilight. I waited 12 minutes for it to load, first try. Finally.
