Spun the First Batt

calico_creme_single.jpg

Here is 2.4 ounces of “Calico Creme", a blend of 100% natural colored huacaya alpaca, converted to handspun singles.

It was fun!

I’ve got more of this blend somewhere. I need to dig it out and make some more singles with it. This yarn ranges from slightly overspun to really overspun – it needs to be plied. I was a little out of practice and happy to be spinning – and my happy feet really turned that wheel at times.

I’ve got alpaca fiber. I’ve got a spinning wheel. I’ve got handspun. Life is good.
