Lavender flax/tencel mix on a Basque spindle.

Finished the first of these flax/tencel rollags on my next spindle.

A Basque drop spindle partially loaded with a lavender colored bamboo/flax blend with a part of the source rollage shown.

Playing with my new spindle. My first Basque spindle and it spins like a dream. #handspun #dropspinning

First sleeve on my Eve shrug so close. Just need to bind off. #knitsky

Oopsie

I love them, but I can understand why some people don't

White glove with flying bat in green.

Finished the colorwork on the first glove. It is measurably better from the bottom to the top. He doesn't care. I am trying to convince myself it's OK. Learning is a process. #knitsky

Despite splitting time between projects, I'm over halfway through my first sleeve on my Eve shrug. #knitsky

It's so far from me 😞

Only acceptable if that time is spent crocheting or weaving or sewing, etc.

Into the first sleeve and second skein for my Eve shrug. #knitsky

Knitted shrug partially knit in red/purple yarn. More than halfway through the body.

Lots of meetings means progress on my shrug #knitsky
Thinking I might have enough yarn to add a hood.

Ugh. That sounds awful

Progress on my son's first glove. I can definitely see my "learning moments" for the ladder back jacquard, but i think i have the hang of it now #knitsky

Omg, that's adorable

I would totally use those for cabinets in my hobby room

That colorway is mesmerizing

Started my Eve shrug #knitsky

Swatch completed for my next project. #knitsky

Making slow progress on the net.

Green and blue tencel with some pink sari silk shown on drop spindle

Skein of blue and green tencel yarn with pops of pink sari silk.

Completed this sample. About 26 grams of tencel (with a little bit of silk) made 46 yards of 2 ply dk yarn. #handspun #dropspinning

Last night's spin didn't get me all the way through the last rollag from this sample. #handspun #dropspinning
It looks like a fiber tornado becoming yarn. 😳 so cool.

Kitty helping.
