It was all about the twist. Hand spun, core spun, redone, plied, felted…..I’m doing my best to catch up, but the yarn orders keep coming and I’m starting to be buried under the pile of fibre. Today was a success insofar as I was able to complete a few orders and get a leg up on the weekend.
Some process photos first.
And the resulting yarns in all their fluffy loveliness.

The yarn on the left is loaded with hand dyed mohair locks in beautiful coppers and greens. The yarn on the right is the tomatoes on the vine. I never get tired of this yarn and it is so loaded.
I was plurking this as I was spinning this. It was hot, sexy love, love for this yarn…I haven’t reskeined this yet. (Bad sign – it means I’m probably knitting it). I’m calling it Angel Blush. Please email me if you would like the stats on this yarn. I’m just going to molest, I mean weigh it now.
Hope all your dreams are fluffy and yarnie tonight.
That last yarn is just so, so, gorgeous. The fruit loops look wonderful – my mind has been playing with things you could knit from it. Thanks again for sharing these – your stuff is always lovely and interesting!
