it’s been a while since i’ve posted any awesome yarn since i’ve been busy hating my job and dealing with life drama. i started this one a while back but JUST NOW finished it because my bulky bobbin was acting funny. i don’t know what the issue was, but the tension was all crazy and i couldn’t get it to spin properly, so i kept sitting down to ply, plying a few yards, then would get so frustrated that i just stopped.
anyway, this is my superwash BFL in “an honest prairie life.” i loved the fiber like crazy, i LOVED spinning the singles (the fiber handles wonderfully), and i love the yarn even more despite the annoyance during the plying stage. it’s 2-ply, and about 306 yards. i guess it’s a lace-fingering weight but i haven’t checked it yet. soft, but not as soft as a merino would be. either way, i’m definitely pleased by the outcome!
it’s pretty thrilling when i realize that school is out in just a couple of weeks, and i have no obligations this summer other than trying to find a new job. i really want to get on the fiber train … i feel like i’ve missed so much time being so miserable for so long! i miss kittenlogic :(
