Spinning

Azules singles spinning

I have finished spinning the singles for a project I began a year ago.  I really don't know why it's taken me so long to get these singles spun.  The fiber is a 4 ounce braid of Malabrigo Nube in Azules, divided into thirds by weight and spun on my Kromski Symphony in Scotch tension at a 16:1 ratio at 40 wraps per inch.

Since I started the first bobbin so long ago, I've got to let these last singles hang out a little bit so the twist will settle before I ply.  I'll probably ply either late this weekend or sometime next week.  I'm thinking of plying on my Schacht Flatiron because I'm not sure I can get the full skein of plied yarn on a single Kromski bobbin.  I've got a couple of days to make that decision though.

Next week we are supposed to have cold weather and rain maybe turning into snow or freezing rain.  I think this weekend I'm going to get all my chores done and everything else I have to do around the house taken care of and straightened up, then we can just snuggle and nest while winter does it's thing outside.  I might even pick a new spinning project!

Have a great weekend!
