Etsy update

I just post some roving for sale at my Etsy shop. If you are interested on purchasing any of my roving,  you can click at the pictures to get redirected to my store.

I had this colorway before with alpaca roving, and liked it so much that I decided to repeated this time with Wensleydale wool.

I really like this colorway. The greens are relly pretty. This is roving has a blend of 50% Alpaca, 30% Merino and 20% Tussah silk.

And the last one for now, is 100 % Wensleydale wool. I called this colorway flame!

I just joined the Phat Fiber Sample Box as a contributor! I just got my samples ready to get mailed for the May box. Here is a little preview before it goes to the mail:

I carded Angelina fiber in colors of fuchsia, gold and green, mohair locks, Wensleydale and suri alpaca

Here is the carder doing its job…

And the batts ready to be mailed!

Hand spun yarn

I haven’t post for a while, Is not that I don’t have anything to share, is just that I’ve been busy getting things ready for our collective. I even started a blog for it. I just hope I will be able to find time to update both of them. But I still managed to spin some yarn from my own hand dyed roving.

I spun this yarn thick and tin.  I really enjoy spinning it, and I’m crazy about how soft it is. I’m debating between keeping it or putting in the store for sale. MMMMMHH!

This is Wensleydale wool, and it was really interesting to spin with it. I’m looking forward to spinning more with it. I really like how this wool takes up on the dye.

I was not sure to leave this yarn as a single, but I decided to ply it with some silk thread that I had previously dyed with eucalyptus leaves. I think I’m in love with it. Really soft…

And this yarn is a blend of Alpaca, silk and superfine merino. I have some of this roving on my Etsy store. The colorway is called Coquette.
