When I first learn...I'm completely with you...<br /><br />When I first learned to spin all I wanted to do was a consistant lace-weight yarn. I seem to have found my place there. So now all I want to do is a very fat, heavy weight yarn.<br /><br />I would love to make a fisherman's sweater out of home-grown, home-spun, fat yarn. I wonder if there's a class to help us spin heavier yarns?Kathryn Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12990925295124938262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537294798049350065.post-50245509177617367642011-11-10T16:18:33.183+00:002011-11-10T16:18:33.183+00:00That Suri Alpaca blend does not want to spin thick...That Suri Alpaca blend does not want to spin thick. It's the beautiful of Suri. It wants to be thin so it can be knitted or woven into a project with lots of drape. NOW, saying that, I have created a few light worsted yarns using that blend but I really have to think about it. You will be amazing once it's plyed and off the bobbin how it will bloom.<br /><br />Can't wait to see the finished yarn.WonderWhyGalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14427923229119655073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537294798049350065.post-88439334170164958362011-11-10T16:14:45.033+00:002011-11-10T16:14:45.033+00:00For what it's worth, I love that color.For what it's worth, I love that color.Vanessahttp://www.mixedmartialartsandcrafts.comnoreply@blogger.com
