In the spring I borrowed a blending board from my friend Carlene. I made rollags at guild social meetings and at demos.
And spinning here and there.
I finally got around to plying them all.
Then I needed to be washed to reset after being tight up in skeins for ages. this is before washing. I spent an evening tying the skeins up so they wouldn’t be a mess after washing.
This is some of them soaking.
And after all the skeins where soaked this it what the water looked like. I couln’t believe how dirty it was.
then I had to hang them all up to dry. excuse my shower backdrop. we don’t have the new tub surround in yet so it is just orange construction plastic so we can shower.
And the finished yarn. I am making the skeins into center pull balls on my nostepinne. I am mostly done. I am getting better at them. I didn’t realise how often I do thick and thin yarn until I started winding the balls. It is fun to do.
So thats one thing finished up from 2017 and only 2 days late. All ready for embellishing some felt. I hope you all have a fibery new year.
