This is the latest addition to my growing collection of handspun yarn. I currently have to stored in a basket, but I think I'm going to need a bigger basket. I'm spinning the yarn much faster than I'm knitting.
I was please to get such a nice thick squishy yarn this time. It is somewhere between a worsted and bulky weight. It is nice and soft too.
The colors are nice a muted. This is the next to last yarn I started over my holiday vacation. Next week I'll be sharing my first attempt at chain plying.

Beautiful again! That's the problem with loving to do many different things -- you can only get one thing done at a time. And then you also have to make time for family things that don't involve knitting, spinning etc.
I've always thought it better to have too many things going than not enough. You are doing wonderful work! Keep it up!
Beautiful Color!!
Very nice! I like the mutedness of the colors. Can't wait to see your chain-plying adventures.
Gorgeous yarn! I love the colorway!
