Almost thin enough XD

Almost thin enough XD

​

I always forget to show any of what I spin or make so I'm trying to remember to take pictures.

I think this is wendsleydale? It feels like it but there wasn't any fiber content listed.

It was one of the first things I spun when I learned last march and it ended up being made into an itchy headband so I decided to brush it out and respin it because it was so beautiful.

I'm trying to learn to spin gossamer weight for a shetland shawl and i think im just in the lace weight when i chain ply it. It really makes me feel like a spider XD

Im not sure what ill make with it this time around, maybe another headband, what would you all do this it?

I may not he knitting as i listen but this time I was spinning my own yarn, not sure if that counts as more boring or not XD

I'm really curious what everyone creates while listening.

This is scrap silk on a spindle i made and painted (based on a starmie)

I love this! I assume I used too big square paper for it though

This still has a couple mistakes but I really dont care, this is the most complicated yet and it wasnt as hard as I thought it would be.

And i have a while rainbow of silk now, I just bought a copper one to finish it, I'll have to post it somewhere.

Progress

I cant get it to rotate but its top down in rough order. Can you tell i liked making the fans XD

I've added what the next pattern im doing is and it looks so fun

New setup

I can already tell this is going to be a lot easier.

I got my new bobbins for a steal, 36 for £6 on vinted and the cushion is some kind of floor cushion for meditating.

I have more pins and more colours of silk coming tomorrow hopefully.

Im going to do the fans in 2 different colours, a gold and a pale green so I'll see if I mess up.

I feel very professional now XD

Okay so hobbii has publicly said that they use AI a bunch and image generation which obviously sucks and I personally wont be buying from them anymore but I cant find some alternatives.

A lot of yarn is sold under different companies as different names, I've found that hobbii's horizon is the same and James c brett swirly wurly and the universe XL is rhe same as stylecraft cabaret.

I have some of the rainbow lace in the petrol colour (colour 35) and I dont think I bought enough so I was wondering if anyone knew if it is sold under another name so I can get the same colours. the range of rainbow lace is perfect for me so this is pretty important for me
