A 2 ply with this lovely merino blend I got. All my coworkers are asking me to make stuff now that I have proper spinning wheel. Anyone else here into spinning yarn?

While I'm on the subject, would anyone else be interested in a write up? I don't want the information to stay on Reddit. And while I'm VERY much not an expert, I can at least start posting resources for folk.

Asking crafters if we're interested in a write-up about how to do an even more obscure bit of our craft? Hmm, let me think... 🤔

Looks super snuggly, merino is the best! Do you have any plans of what to make with this one yet?

A beanie for this one! I've been bullied (I don't really mind) into 3 seperate projects for my coworkers. Two beanies and a scarf for the eternally freezing executive chef. And I'll try making a write up!! The depth you can go into with just drafting ALONE is fantastically interesting. And I don't feel as bad spending $20 on fibre when I know it'd cost twice as much as yarn, hehe.

But seriously, this week I'll work on a write up before I go on an endless rant. See if I can't bring some wooly madness with me, heh. Look forward to some more experimental yarns from me! 🤗
