ok ok ok ok this is how the whacky braid is plying up. Consider my gob smacked. Is… is this love?!!

Hab die ultimative gothic hand spindle gefunden 🖤
Finished winding off the last of the fiber I spun for #tourdefleece2026, finally! Plied, washed, snapped, dried, measured and balled, I have 1445.5 yards of three-ply targhee/targhee/merino. Really looking forward to knitting with it!

- three hanks of handspun wool yarn, immersed in dye and bubbling away for another hour
Life's important questions: if I #spin this #handspun, #handdyed 2-ply into 4-ply, will I have enough to finish this heel?
Only one way to find out... also will the spinner wet set the new yarn before using it? Stay tuned. 😉

Some recent views of where my work has taken me. Transfering leftover singles onto a #turkishspindle, a view of a friends #handspun shag, and a pile of vintage tools and #spinningwheel parts. #sloppyartnotaislop #pacifictextilearts #textiles
Dusted off my spinning wheel today and some random oddments of dyed wool.
Going for a little tiny skein of something with a dark and 80s vibe 😎
I think many people have seen the Seine Socks, so I'm just showing progress.
I've also posted the #handdyed #handspun blue socks. I'm showing them as an exception to my blocking is silly rules. My 100% longwool and silk blend socks went through the washing machine b4 blocking.

I've predrafted the last ounce of eight for this spin of Banshee Fiber Arts Targhee/bamboo/silk blend. It's going so fast. I'm hoping for a sport weight two ply when it's done.

I am just happy to have gotten this far. Whoop! #fibrearts #weaving #handspun
I should have mentioned that the hap did happen.

Finally was able to get a video of the grey headed flying fox that I knitted up for the County fairs this year! This was a super fun little project to work on! #Knitting #Amigurumi #Handspun #WoolaBull
July 5th, and today. Progress!
Today I finished spinning the singles of the first half of the Viscose fiber, Sample 108, at 30 wpi, that I started last Friday, and then plied it to get a 2 ply, sport weight yarn, 12 wpi, at about 63 yards to 1.75 ounces.

All of the Pan's Garden Fibers spun up. Top 3 are lotus, bottom 4 rose. All fractal spun 2 ply. About 1300 yards. The question remains, does @lionesselise.bsky.social want yarn to play with, or something woven? #handspun #handspinning #PlantFibers @
