Spun




My first real skein of hand-dyed, handspun yarn. Made on my Babe Fiberstarter spinning wheel with superwash merino roving from www.wool2dye4.com. This skein weighs 70g(2.5oz) and is approximately 50m(55yd) of thick/thin, ranging from sport to bulky weight.

That is SO PRETTY!
I bet that would make a beautiful pair of fingerless gloves/handwarmers!
