Silk

It took some time, but I finished the ounce of silk, plied 3 strands together into 176m (193yds) of lovely lace yarn and now need a project. There's another 58m of silk thread single that I plan to embroider with.


Lace Yarn

3 ply and single ply

I've moved on to a silk and camel blend. Another gift of Sericin Silk roving from KW Knitter's Fair. The colourway is "a dance with fuschia".  This is another fine yarn I will 3-ply.  I decided to play with my support spindle for this project and I am loving it.  It's much easier working with the camel/silk than it was when I first tried this spindle with alpaca.
