Spin the Rainbow
I have been busy with my Loop batt that I grabbed from Maryland. Maybe it’s because I decided not to ply the yarn. Maybe I have been spinning more than I think, but I am nearly done with the the 5.2oz of Abracadabra I got at MDSW.
I have been aiming for a fingering weight single and I seem to be mostly successful. I have been using my Bosworth mini spindle and winding off into skeins when I think it is too full. That seems to be somewhere between 1.3 and 1.5oz.
I am working on what will be the last ball now, greens and yellows mostly, and looking at the yardage I got on the red (~156 yards) I think I will end up with a surprisingly large yardage. Once I have the final count I shall decide what to make with it, but I am still leaning towards a massive winter wrap/shawl, to go with my color affection.
What would you make with this yarn? The final yardage looks like it will be about 500 yards or higher. I will find out in the next couple days hopefully.
