SPAKAL Update! Second bobbin

image

I’m working on the second bobbin now. This will be a 2-ply yarn so should be fairly quick.

This is such a dream to spin. It’s a shame that Yarn chef has closed her shop this year. :( if you have any Yarn Chef fiber you don’t plan to use send them my way hehehehe

Loving the colors and the bamboo makes it slightly shiny. This is going to a gorgeous shawl.

Spun to knit Update – singles

I’m currently working on Yarn Chef’s 60% Merino/40% Bamboo fiber right now. The colors are gorgeous and bamboo is really pleasant to spin. I’m going to make this a 2-ply lace weight yarn for a shawlette. Question: when your flyer only came with one set/side of hooks, is there any way I can wind the yarn onto the bobbin more evenly? I decided to not get a WW for my Kiwi and instead just save the money for a Matchless later. Perhaps I should get a sliding hook flyer that was made for Kiwi 2?
