Fiber Fool

This is what I hope to play with over the weekend. If I’m lucky it’ll all be yarn by Sunday evening. Wish me luck as it is going to be hotter than you know what and we didn’t cool off last night. DH stayed up until around 3am when we could *finally* open windows. That isn’t good sign for comfortable spinning. *sigh*

These batts total a tad over 6 ounces from Terrabellaspun. Glitz/angelina/firestar free! Renae gave me stellar service, I can’t recommend her enough! I messaged her about a custom order and asked how quick I could have it. It was on my doorstep in something like three days. With a custom order!

I should have had it spun up already. Shoot, it should have been knit already. However a design emergency landed in my Inbox about the same time as the fiber that has pushed my schedule off by at least ten days if not more like two weeks.

Fortunately for me, this is a commission project and the yarn I need to knit with is bulky, not at all the number of hours that went into the Journeymen yarn. I did do a little practicing of my bulky spinning as I haven’t done any since my Earthy which I used to knit my Urchin. Ultimately I’d like this new yarn to be a bit bulkier than that was. But, if it matches the Earthy yarn it’ll do. I’ll have to check what I plied a couple days ago and see how it looks.

Have a good weekend everyone!
