Lace Weight HandSpun

Description

Please download--my camera did a FANTASTIC job this shot. I love it's super macro mode.

A lace weight that I just finished spinning. The green you see on the outside is also the start--the most continuous colour. No idea what the green is, it was the most unique thing I've ever touched (super slippery, but once twisted was stronger than even the merino!). There is also merino of various shades, some carded alpaca, and a bit of alpaca curl. My favourite was the silk/angora blend that I used very little of.

I'll post the skein once I get it set so colours can be seen. All of these are samples that I've gotten with my orders (which is the goal of this skein, to spin with only the samples).

Fiber pack from Shunklies Etsy shop

Yellow/brown fiber merino sample from Bee Mice Elf Etsy shop

Spindle is a 1oz top whorl drop by Jesh Etsy shop She makes a damn fine spindle, and I recommend her work to anyone who wants a new spindle.

ok i didn't understand a lot of that, but that's really cool! the pic looks kind of dramatic (i think it's the angle) and that's a really neat shade of green. i'd like to see it when you've got the time ^_^
