Description

Sometimes in the course of small spinning projects for demonstrative purposes at local events, a waste-not, want-not philosophy in relation to leftover bits of wool, OR simply as experimentation in advance of a large project, I end up with single odd-sized skeins. While many of them are super-nifty, I also generally tend to have more yarn than I can use – so rather than hoard them for “some day” I will list them here and keep the photos and description up to date as some skeins sell out or other skeins are added to the listing.

Skein #3 is spun with 100% Nevada-grown wool which came from a Montadale/Finnsheep cross named Petunia 🙂 This is a 3-ply yarn containing the colors: lavender, turquoise, and silver. While not a true thick and thin yarn, there are some irregularities to add interest to your project. It is approximately 5-6 WPI which makes this a super bulky yarn and is approximately 23 yards.

Skein #4 is spun with 100% Nevada-grown wool which came from a Montadale/Finnsheep cross named Petunia 🙂 This is a 3-ply yarn containing the colors: lavender, turquoise, and silver. While not a true thick and thin yarn, there are some irregularities to add interest to your project. It is approximately 6 WPI which makes this a bulky yarn and is approximately 63 yards.

Skein #6 is a two ply yarn made from one ply (natural brown) alpaca and one ply (natural white) wool. 116 yards. This yarn is all over the place with WPI – I started it, let it sit for a long time and when I came back to finish it, more or less completely forgot what I was doing and intended for the yarn. As such, you will noticed a marked difference between the beginning and the ending of the skein. It will make a fun yarn for craft purposes or for small knitting/crochet projects. While not ideal for a pattern or project which requires a consistent yarn, the variety in this yarn could create some very interesting items.

***all yarns are hand-spun NOT machine-spun so you will find some irregularities in thicknesses and plies **** Though we do our utmost to remove all foreign matter, please bear in mind that all these yarns are created with natural fibers, you *may* find some VM (such as hay, etc.)***
