    Those are beautiful! I had a low spinning year in 2015, but those are inspiring me to break out a braid I was given 11 months ago! (We won’t discuss the older stash!)

    Lovely! Wish I had the patience to spin. What is the nifty WPI tool you have there?

    Spinning is on my to do list for the future! Lovely skeins you have spun. I look forward to seeing them knitted up into something wonderful.

    These are all gorgeous – especially the third skein, I’m super into the pastels & the way the colours blended together. (I am also amazed at your put-up – 300+ yards for a 12 wpi yarn, oh my goodness.)

    How do you know about yard? I don’t know how to figure to how much yard in spinning into skein.

    Absolutely gorgeous yarns! Looking forward to seeing what you knit with them. :-)

    And this post reminded me that I’ve been meaning to let you know what one of your handspun skeins from last year turned into: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/jlsjlsjls/hitchhiker
