Spindle Spun Laceweight
Not sure what this will become, likely something from one of my lace books, but until I get a few other projects finished up around here it will have to mellow in my "stash".

I love colours like that and it's so fine too!

ReplyDeleteThat lace weight is beautiful...I crochet and am a fiber and fabric addict...hehe

Wow. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOoh, ooh, pretty... I tend to spin thicker but knit the thinner stuff--kind of a disconnect there...
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole. I love spinning laceweight on the spindle. I can't do it for hours at a time, like I can with a wheel, but I keep the spindle in the kitchen and spin for little snippets of time whenever I can. It eventually adds up!
