Long time, no post! Here’s what I’ve been working on:
It’s the first yarn from little Marseille that I’ve ever spun, from her baby fleece. The color is really hard to capture, but it’s a dark gray, almost black, shot through with shiny light gray strands.
I spun the singles on my sidekick, and plied it all on my drop spindle. I haven’t spent so much time working with my spindle in a while, and I actually gave myself blisters, but it was worth it. This solid, medium weight yarn is no fuss and no frills, but soft soft soft.
*drooling* I know this is mine and I can’t wait to get my hands on it!!!!!!!!!!!!! =)))))))))
BTW realized sister in law (based on her bio clock not actual due date) may be having baby any day from next week onward so I will be needing the plain trip soon too. =)) We can talk amounts and what not later just thought I’d give you a heads up.
Looks lovely – real steel grey.
It’s a great color! Not as soft as I was expecting from her baby fleece, but then, I’m spoiled.
