Yesterday I said that I could reward myself and do a fun skein of yarn and here it it. ↑ I spun a slubby, thick and thin from the roving posted yesterday but as I was spinning, I added pieces of shiney, brightly dyed mohair that I purchased from Cheryl at her cherylavenue Etsy shop. Then I threaded 140 little gold beads on beige Wooly Nylon thread and plied with it. I wish that the beads showed up in the picture...... I ended up with 160 yards which should be enough to knit or crochet some little thing....a skinny scarf or a funky hat.Thursday, March 20, 2008

So pretty! Someone should grab this right up, it will make a cool 'something'!
You are such a creative spinner. Can I come and spin with you someday so you can teach me some of your tricks? (I'm not kidding either lol. I'm totally up for a road trip!)
Love this yarn! It's so bright, colorful, and cheery. It would make a hat that would get noticed!
WANT. Is this one for sale? Gonna go check your etsy shop...
Your skein is so beautiful, love it, love it!!
Lovely1 And really does look like you must have had fun spinning it.
