Spin A Yarn for Ewe

I spun up the BFL last night, plied with beads and we now have 160 yards of pink cotton, pastel beads and natural BFL yarn. I was going to take photos but I decided to set the twist and it is still wet. Don't need a bunch of yuck sticking to it. But I do have photos of the rovings I dyed yesterday. I always spin them dry in the washer so they were dry this morning. First up we have Swamp Land. The roving is a very bizarre color combo that I am really looking forward to spinning. I have learned that the ugliest roving can be the best finished yarn. It has purple, blue, green and a rusty brown with lots of the natural color left in. Really swampy.

Next is Sea Breeze. My personal favorite color combos of yellow, blue and green also with white left in but not as much. These will both be standard 2ply so it will take me longer to spin.

I also finished the bag for my Kit Pal. I made it out of a pair of short guy's old jeans. Lined it with a turquoise fabric and finished with a nice silk scarf through the belt loops. I plan to photo the whole "kit" as soon as I get the last items. She said she wanted to try 2 circulars to knit socks so I am going to get her those and of course a few more pair for myself.
