Tour de Fleece - day NINE

Jul 08, 2012 20:16



Saturday 7th July 2012
MHE Falkland naturally dyed in March 2012 : colour - Zen Garden
got this one out ready for days 9 - 11 of the Tour de Fleece, splitting for a fractal yarn : half keep one for first single, then one half in half, other piece in two so three pieces for second single.


Sunday 8th July
3pm : Finished the first single today, its only taken about an hour and a half, spun quite thickly so not expecting a great yardage but I had always intended in knitting this yarn as part of another free-range jumper so only need a small amount anyway, its perfect for that purpose. Going to start the second single about 4pm today.
5:30pm Both singles are now finished and in my lazy kate basket ready for plying. Our daughter in law has arrived for the summer now so family meal first then might do the plying tonight if I have any energy left. Nice smooth singles, very pleased with this yarn so far.
