Description

The listing, Handspun Yarn has ended.

Up for bids is my own handspun yarn. It was my second one ever and it was spun on a drop spindle. Because it is handspun, the weight of this yarn will vary and because I was just learning it varies more than someone with more experience spinning.

With all that being said, I love the colors in this yarn but I just can't think of a project for it and thought someone on here might have a better imagination than I do!

Specs:

Color: Red, black, small amounts of white and a little shimmer. (The picture is pretty true to its actual color.)

Weight: mostly worsted (buy varies from fingering to bulky)

Single ply (the twist has been set and it is a pretty well balanced yarn)

Fiber content: wool, mohair, firestar (the sparkle in the yarn) and viscose

Yardage: approximately 37 yards

My home is smoke free and cat loving but the yarn is kept in plastic storage bins way from her. Please feel free to ask any questions!

What form was the fiber in when you spun it? :) (batt....) It's pretty!

Yup it was a batt. I think that they call it a fiber egg though. I will be sending the tag that it came with so that if someone should like the fiber they can get it from the shop!

You are silly! I didn't think about the colors much when I told you about it but once I looked at it again, it might be right up your alley. When I was spinning it, all I could think about was "vampire" with the red and black!

Thank you! I wish that it had been a larger amount that I had gotten because it really was pretty watching it spin up into yarn.
