a decided lack of accomplishment

[idiosyncreant]

I just remembered it's not just Protect the Boss and City Hunter I haven't finished yet, because they got too serious to spin to. I haven't finished Secret Garden or Runaway Plan B, either.

(Though of the last three really good ones, Runaway Plan B is the easiest to slip into, and I've watched it the most steadily.)

Man. Have I finished *anything*

Haha, thank you! I'm pretty proud of it myself. XD

Since you might find it interesting, here's how it went together: I strung the beads on a thread, still on the spool, in an order I thought would look good in little sets.
"Corespun" is a way of spinning where you wrap wool around a thread like this, giving it a more beefy texture, and a different look (you hold the wool at practically a right angle to the thread as you spin the center and it wraps on).

So I used that thread as the core, letting some of the beads break up the wrapping a little as I fed the thread they were on into the yarn. :)

Since it looks like dreadlocks to do it anyway, I thought it was *perfect* for mermaid hair, with beads in it like ornaments.

Wow! So. Cool. It looks fantastic!

I didn't think you could possibly have strung the beads on there after or during spinning, so I was really stumped as to how you got them on there.

I wish I did anything that involved using yarn, because I love your stuff. It really matches my taste in color.

Possibly in the future, for dreadlocked pony hair, IDEK. If you ever have smallish amounts of brightly-colored roving you've no idea what to do with, there are definitely uses for that, and I'd buy it off you.
