After a frustrating night on Friday trying to figure out why the woolee winder on my new ashford espinner wouldn’t work (I did get it running Saturday morning) I spent Saturday evening giving coiled yarn a go. Thick and thin wool / silk / glitter single coiled around a silk / merino / mohair core, then plied with hand dyed mulberry silk. No frustration at sight, only tired today because I couldn’t stop once I got going!
I’ve been teaching myself to spin chunky yarn from the start of the year. Sometimes aiming for relatively consistent yarn. Sometimes speeding through for thick and thin. All is fun and fluffy.
