Almost Ready

I finally have most of the yarn done for the shop. She is having a big Grand Re-Opening on the 25th so she wanted most of the yarns before then. I will probably take them down next Friday. I had to reskein most of them and use something nicer to tie them than the cotton kitchen twine I usually use. medium_roving_to_yarn_043.jpg Here they are basking in the sunshine. I also added tags to them with info. I tried to do alot of colors as she said she prefered to have more "spring" colors vs darks but I snuck one neutral and have 2 others to go with it. Here is another shot from a different angle.medium_roving_to_yarn_042.jpg I am going to do my "magic" skein tonight and take that with me too as I think it would be fun. I hadn't done it yet as I had 2 other left over bobbins of yarn that I wanted to add to it. I tried a new technique for me of plying from a center pull ball and it worked well to get 2 ply from a left over amount. It is for sure a technique I would use again for those left over bits.

mmmm those colors are delicious! I wonder why she wanted the skeins to be 100yds long. Great Job! : )
