Ready, Set....Go!

Okay, I finished the neutral yarn with beads. I really think for totally undyed yarn this is a favorite of mine. The beads just set it off. Neutral yarn
It took me all weekend to spin this yarn as we did different stuff at night and I didn't have time.

Now I finally get to start on my swap yarn. I have done all the pre-spinning prep work which takes a while with this type of yarn but I think the results are worth it. Here are the flowers all ready to go. Scarf Swap Yarn I totally lucked out on the beads as I already had them and they match perfectly. Now today I need to find a good color plying thread. I was thinking something in the blue-green range. I have a great sewing store near me that has tons of threads. They always look at me funny as I spend forever looking at thread and thread only. One lady actually asked me what I was looking for. When I told her she looked at me like I was weird. I mean making your own yarn has to be crazy to someone who makes her own clothes or quilts, right? I just laughed so now they leave me alone.

The neutral yarn is beautiful. Love the beads in it. People who work in fabric stores can be just a little obsessive about their own field I think
