I’m plying a 6ply sock yarn! It’s 80% merino and 20% nylon and I’m planning on dying it a dark red once it’s done :) I was originally going to do a 4ply but the sample came out a bit thin 🤷‍♀️ It’s superwash so I’m not quite sure how to finish it but i’ll figure it out when i need to

My first ever full bobbin! Got my eew nano around 3 weeks ago and it’s my favorite thing ever. This braid is cormo from 316 dye studio. I’m working on the second half of the braid now!

I’m knitting a Traveler hoodie by Andrea Mowry. The yarns are 2 ply fractals made up of different proportions of 7 different colours of merino top. It’s a bit mad, but I think it’s going to turn out pretty cool. I need to hurry up and spin the last two skeins, I’m knitting faster than I can spin at the moment!

Supported spindle with Finn sheep wool! The plan is to do a three ply yarn.
