Spinning

The wedding shawl is still progressing, slowly but surely.  I AM going to finish it before the wedding – I still have a few weeks!  Last week I was distracted when some gorgeous hand dyed superwash merino roving arrived in the mail.  Have I mentioned that green is a favorite color of mine?

I immediately began to separate and pre-draft the super soft fiber.  And then I began to spin. I love seeing the way the colors build on my spindle.

My goal is to turn this roving into a 2-ply sock yarn so I can have a pair of gloriously green socks.

    Wow — that green is gorgeous. I’ve always been afraid of spinning, but yours looks so pretty!
