Out of panic, I oiled the new fishing line and the bobbin on the wheel to see if I could stop that horrible noise that interfered with my calm, zen like spinning time. It worked! Shocking to me as my Magiver like attempts do not usually work.

Another fine spin on the day…

The first ply was handspun merino and corriedale blend in rusts with bits of purple.
The second ply was a commercial yarn from my stash from Italy. (kid mohair, metallic thread and rayon) in red, rust, purple and I think I saw a fleck of blue in there.

And just for the photographic record. This is what 13 hats knit at the same time looks like sitting on a couch.

Yikes….off to a paying job today…
