Handmade
Materials: Secondary fiber: Wool
Length: 330 yards

Yarn weight: 1 fingering & sock

I spunthis yarn on my spindle from a superfine merino roving that shifted from pumpkin orange to russet and brick tones to wine hues and purples (The photos don't seem to capture the more winey purple well). I chain plied (navajo plied) the single to allow for a three ply thickness while allowing the yarn to gradually shift from the oranges to the purples without mixing.

This skein would make a lovely shawlette, cowl or scarf. The yarn is so soft against the skin.

DETAILS:
100% superfine merino wool
fingering weight (14 wpi)
about 330 yards total
approx. 4.2 oz./118 g totoal
3 ply thick (chain/navajo plied)

NOTE:
This listing is for a single skein of spindle spun handspun yarn. Feel free to convo me with any questions.

Kate's Cauldron is a WONDERFUL shop! Beautiful spindles, well balanced, and if you're a beginning spinner or tend to have spindles that wobble? Her spiral and split notch shafts are PERFECT for a straight and non-wobbly spin! DO support this shop!

The spiral whorl is becoming my fav! I don't even have to use a leader on it. These are awesome. A clean spin! Being a square whorl helps me see the slowing of the revolutions better and I do not need a notch!

I love the spiral notch but this is the smallest drop spindle I've gotten. I didn't like it at the very first, since it was so small and I wasn't used to it and had to get used to the fact since it was so light, the spin would not last long until there was more weight on it. But now? It is TERRIFIC!!!! I can spin away all day on this little tornado. The spiral notch is awesome. I love it!
