Colorful Yarn!

Rollogs made on the drum carder. 

Ready to be spun!

Spun and plyed, the yarn looks like this

Spinning and Plying

Spinning and plying, I love it!

Prize Winner!

I spun a color experiment and entered it in the State Fair, and

it won 3rd prize!  I love the Shady Glade color way from Abstract Fibers.  

So I spun one hank of that roving that I first blended on my drum carder, and then 

spun the other hank from split lengths of the same roving.  Not the best picture

of the yarn, but a dandy shot of the prize ribbon! If you look closely, you can see
the blended yarn on the left, and the split roving on the right.

Spun and Unspun

Plying Magic!

I had a skein of thick-thin hand spun wool yarn, that was 

lovely in it's own way, but a bit dull for my purpose. 

So I plied it with wool yarns and ribbons, silk and novelty yarns!

Not a bit dull anymore!
