Does she really spin or is it just all talk and felt?

Yes I have finally gotten my act together. After seeing a couple of wool tops in Mandie's shop, that I immediately saw as a jumper for my son, I guess I had to start the spinning wheel and forget about the felting, just for a little while.

This Mandie's "strayleaf 1 or 2...;-) before I started spinning.

And this is halfway.................

And here is the result, plied with white Alpaca, since I thought that 200 grams is not enough for a whole jumper.

Since I'm already writing and adding pictures I thought that I would just share a couple of the latest scarfs that I have created.

First one is made of white alpaca with tufts of silk randomly spread over one side. It is very light , long and narrow.

The second one is a bit wider, it is also white alpaca with randomly placed white tufts of silk on the front. It has "holes"that are "backed"with silk chiffon and I have used golf thread to stitch 3 simple lines around the holes.

That is all for this time folks......

Happy spinning, knitting and felting out there :-)

Cheers Maria
