Spin A Yarn for Ewe

I finally got around to skeining up the yarn I have been working on. The roving was something I could not come up with a name for but the finished yarn looks like Pansies to me. Purple, white, yellow at little blue and green. I like it much better now than before it was spun.

I have learned that spinning sometimes lends a cohesiveness to the yarn that in its unspun state can not convey. Here is it close up.


The purse is moving along but since I haven't reached the halfway point yet so I will spare you the photos. It is getting faster as I go and learn how to hold the beads right. The fabric it makes is really hard to describe but it is really slinky feeling as the beads are on both sides. I think everyone should try one. I know this will not be my last one. Who knows what I will do with a bunch of fancy beaded bags but they are so darn fun to make.
