Hello Fiber Arts Friday fans
Well if you know Wonder Why Gal then you know we’re doing a Tour de Fleece event this month. Spinning fiber every day the Tour de France is cycling.
Here’s a snippit of what I’ve been working on
I painted up some new rovings to wok with since I have LOTS of white fiber laying around. Spinning white is fun but oh gosh can it get boring.
I tried my hand at core spun yarn which seems to have turned out nicely. Pretty bulky too.
The purple you see on the bobbin I spun up from raw un-carded alpaca locks that were died a light purple. Very interesting to try and spin up uncarded fiber but I love the way the yarn turned out. Lots of fluffies, big poof, thin spots, and oh so soft. Made for a great art yarn.
Well that’s it in a nut shell.
