Knit Flix: Time to ply

Tuesday, February 27, 2007

All of the Blue Faced Leicester is spun into singles.

Blue Faced Leicester .

That little hank in the front is 1-1/2 oz. that was spun on Mary's spindle. I tried my hand at Navajo Plying tonight. It's seriously overspun--or perhaps I should say it has a lot of energy.

The singles on the bobbins will be plyed tomorrow night, then I'll start in on the Fiber Fiend! Mars.

Wow, look at you go. The singles are looking good!

You've made so much progress!! Very even looking singles.

It's really hard to not overply with Navajo ply. I still have trouble with that. Luckily, BFL stays soft no matter what!

I am seriously impressed!
Wow.

Dang, woman. Navajo plying already? When you get in, you get IN. Wow.

Wow, you've got yarn there! I have made no progress and will clearly be outshined by y'all tonight. Of course if I actually picked up my (brand new!) spindle or dusted off the wheel...

OK, that's it, I have to learn how to spin. Very nice yarn!

your spinning is nice. May I know where you get the Blue Faced Leicester fiber. I like the colour very much.

Wow, you're fast! It looks great! You'll be out-spinning us all next Saturday! I can't wait to see what you do with the Mars fiber!
