I have no idea why the clock says 12:41am and I’m still awake. My bedtime should have been hours ago. I suspect it might have to do with the ginormous iced coffee McDonalds gave me despite me ordering a medium which meant me sipping on a caffeine high all day long.
My spinning wheel has been neglected over this hot summer. I’ve just not been in the spinning mood. But now that it’s officially September it means fall is quickly on its way and I’m ready to get back into it! I have some merino/tencel on there now (pictured above) from Knitted to a T (picked up last year at Wool Gathering). When I originally bought this fiber I bought 4oz of plain merino and 4oz of the merino/tencel blend with the idea that I’d spin each individually into singles and then ply them together. But now… now I’m not so sure. I like the shine of this one and I’m worried it might get lost if I blend it with the plain merino or look weird.
On the other hand, if I do what I originally planned then I should end up with more than enough yardage to do quite a bit bigger project than my usual scarf. And that’s really what I wanted when I bought the fibers: more yardage. Anyone have any thoughts?
