Today I completed the plying of the Ula Batts and Tussah silk, from Yummy Yarns UK. It is very soft yarn with a touch of luxury. I need to skein it but for now my Niddy Noddy has gone on walkabouts. It will turn up. I plan on spinning some more Grey tomorrow after work when the little one is in bed and then I am trying to formulate a plan for these:
These are fibres I received in a Scrap Swap Parcel. They are a complete explosion of colours. They have actually been very useful for colour theory workshops. I may just go for the random spin and ply as my confidence to devise a colour palette is not up to what it should be. I also intend to teach myself how to Navajo ply at some point in the 'Tour De Fleece'. (That is a method of plying singles as opposed to two yarns plied together.) For now just any spinning over the next three work days will be an achievement. I save the adventurous stuff for my days off!
