The core spinning experiment was a complete disaster. Then I consulted Diane Varney's Spinning Designer Yarns. "To prevent overtwist, spin the core yarn in the opposite direction to that in which it was originally spun (singles) or plied." DUH! That would have made much more sense. Well you live and you learn.







Steph sent me a really kind gift certificate from Adagio Teas as my Fiber Random Act of Kindness gift for the day. I urge everyone with a blog to join FiberRAOK - it really is fun to send out little surprises to others. That reminds me that I have a few knitting patterns on my desk I want to send out this week. And thanks again Steph!



I'll be back Sunday with a knitting project to show barring any further disasters.
