WIP: Spinning Lessons -- Single Samples

Here is another instalment of my spinning those samples I got in the other day.

This is nice bright fibre once it was spun up!

I had some "help" trying to take pictures.

This is what is on the spindolyn now.
100% Superwash, treated merino from Freyalyn's Hand-dyed Fibres

 This fibre is hard to spin, you have to put a lot of twist in it to feel like it will stay together. That may just be me and my preferences but I am slowly working through it!

Up-close of that spinning. It is turning out beautifully!

WIP: Gossamer Lace Scarf

This project is turning out better then I could have expected and goes fairly quickly. I have many things in the air right now because of all the crafts I was doing for Christmas, so hopefully I can finish some off and work on this one on the plane ride back to scotland in January!

WIP: Gossamer Lace Scarf

I am working with my Belle Epoque Yarn making PlanetJune's Gossamer Lace Wrap. I am only doing one repeat to make it a smaller scarf.

The pattern allows the colors of this yarn to really be displayed.

WIP: Spinning Lessons --Silk

So I have now the silk I received in my spinning kit spun onto a toilet paper tube for its resting period.

So shiny...

~Weekend Fun~

So on top of all of the stuff coming up this week I have a few more projects in the works. If you are a person I have promised a gift to PLEASE DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER. For all you other people who nicely read my blog, enjoy the rest of this post!

First is that little alpaca I have been working on:

Fuzzy Wuzzy was an Alpaca?

Second, another scarf but made for my friend for christmas:

Now I am not a fan of pink but I LOVE this cotton candy looking skein!

Third, I will be making wrist warmers for my mother and a bear for a friend out of this yarn:

I have TWO of these! So Beautiful!

Fourth, I will be making something special with this yarn (HINT: I use a french knitting doll):

I hope this will make a beautiful addition to the piece I have in mind for it!

Lastly, I have this new beautiful yarn that I will use with the yarn above in a project yet to be determined:

So beautiful! Yes I do realize they look different, they do so in person too.

I love the name: Corryvreckan Blue

I will doing an inventory of all my hooks, needles, and fun things. I will take off my stash yarn since it is on my ravelry page and in my Flickr photos!

Done: Pumpkin Kitty and Baby Kitty

Finally I have finished my baby kitty version of the pumpkin kitty. It was really hard on the fingers with smaller holes to try and get the needle through the holes. But it is done!!

Inspiration: Pink to Purple - Belle Epoque

This yarn speaks for itself.

This is wonderfully dyed yarn and each skein is different!
