Earlier, I wrote about my new spinning project. I am spinning a yarn counter-clockwise to be able to knit myself a pair of twined knitted mittens<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One finished, three to go<\/h1>\n

The current status is that\u00a0I have finished one spindle of s-spun singles, about 30 grams. According to the pattern book, I need 100\u2013120 grams, so if I make another 3 30 gram singles I will end up with one 60 gram skein for each mitten. With twined knitting it is av very good idea to knit both mittens at the same time. This to make sure that the gauge turns out the same. I did not do this with my first pair.<\/p>\n

A challenging spin<\/h1>\n

I have to say It is not the easiest spinning I have experienced. The fiber is impressingly smooth and silky, but there is a certain amount of tugging. I think it has to do with the preparation \u2013 I comb the locks as lightly as possible, just to separate the fibers. I guess they are still a little attached to each other, making the drafting a little challenging. But I get the effect I want, and I really enjoy spinning counter-clockwise with my left hand<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"A
The many shades of beautiful grey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Beautiful greys<\/h1>\n

I love how the colour variation turned out. There is a spectrum from almost white, through silver and light grey to medium and even dark grey, and some strokes of golden brown. Spinning the locks one by one, I was hoping to catch as many of the shades in the fleece as possible. I would not have been able to achieve this effect had I combed the wool in the traditional way. Also, a yarn like this is not possible to machine spin. This will truly be a unique yarn, which warms my heart a little extra.<\/p>\n

Happy spinning, both clockwise and counter-clockwise!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
