Some of my skeins

Silk skein

fine silk skein This scan is almost twice the actual size. The two bits that you see sticking out of the top of the skein are individual strands of 2-ply yarn, not a couple plys that have come untwisted. I spun this worsted style from bombyx silk top.


Cabled cotton skein

cotton skein This is a 4-ply cabled cotton spun from space-dyed roving. I really like the speckled effect of the colours.


Another cabled cotton skein

This space-dyed cotton roving came from Shoshana.


Navajo-plyed wool

Navajo-plyed wool skein Not my best plying job. This was my first attempt at Navajo-plying and I still hadn't gotten the hang of treadling slowly while plying. I spun this out of some lovely space-dyed merino roving that Joan Fernbach bought for me at Rheinbeck.
