Pigging Out was my mix of Pigs by Countess Ablaze and Cherry Bakewell by Fondant Fibre. I got 530m of a light fingering weight, with a good chunk of the Pigs single that's still languishing on a bobbin somewhere...
Ida was a basic chunky single, chain plied. Super soft and a lovely lustre.
New Orleans was the third instalement of the FF Jazz Club. This was my first chain-plied thick and thin - it's such a lovely and quick spin, and you end up with a lovely, squishy, floofy yarn that you just pet like a cat.
Popsicle was a purchase on a whim - a gorgeous mix of grey and pastel pink and mint and bright yellow, with a little sparkle. Another extreme thick and thin, chain plied for pockets of super puffy fluffy goodness.
I'd spun up some of my Moonshine Falkland months back - chain-plied - and decided to stick to singles this time round. 477m of a lovely, fine yarn that would look stunning as a shawl one day.
I'd had these Dovedale rolags since I'd started spinning. It was my first "real" wool purchase, over a year ago. I spun them long-draw, and chain plied for a lovely thick but soft yarn.
I split up my Rooster batts from Nunoco into a gradient from orange, through brown through blue-green, and chain plied the singles to keep the colourway intact.
I also did a couple of little single-afternoon-spins - some of the mini batts from Nunoco's Incense Smorgasbox. The first was Opium - a wonderful mix of pink, green and purple; the second was Sandalwood, a browny-orangey purple.
Total weight: 930g
Total yardage (metre-age?) 1,883m
Not bad for a newbie - next year's aims are at least 2,500m :)
