I’ve finished up the Aquarelle English Wool Blend that I recently got from Wildcraft. I’m really pleased with the results.
This is a traditional three ply, 152g, 450m, heavy fingering. I am SO looking forward to knitting this. I’ll be starting with the big skein and working towards the mid-sized skein. Unfortunately, my bobbins won’t hold a full 150g. The mini skein is the leftover that I navajo plied… and it there in case I fall short on yarn, which I shouldn’t.
Today also marks the first day of Tour de Fleece. It’s not to late to join, so head over if you are up to doing a bit of spinning. I’ll be playing on Team Fibre Puffin (aka the Woollies), and Team Knitabulls.
With the tour in full swing, I should have lots of photos next Saturday… even if many of them are in progress. I’m going to pull fibre as needed, but my plan is to put this BFL (from Southern Cross Fibre) on my Louet Victoria and spin it as a single:
And make progress on my laceweight that I’m spindling:
I still have 32g of that fibre left to spin as of this morning.
