I just finished my #drkinclinationscowl that I cast on in 2022 (yowza) using two colors of Spincycle ☺️❤️ #knitting #knit #yarn #handmade

Thank you so much! ❤️

Thank you so much! It’s a combo spin from Hello Yarn, Wee Chickadee & Yarn Jam 😊

I haven’t posted here in a while so here is a recent FO knit up in handspun yarn❤️ #drkjaunry #handspunyarn #spinningyarn #knitting

I gave myself a little one day challenge and spun up some gorgeous rolags! I just did a 3 ply of two rolags each for a cute little woolen mini! I have a little less than 100 yards of sport weight 💙 A really fun instant gratification project! #spinningyarn #handspunyarn #yarn #handmade #knitting

Thank you so much!!

I’m so excited to use this yarn combo for an upcoming test knit featuring my handspun! #handspunyarn #spinningyarn #handspinning #testknit #knitting #yarn

I finished up this beautiful test knit for @toriknitsnyc.bsky.social yesterday and I’m so stoked about it and I can’t wait to share more! #cityscapecowl #knitting #knit #yarn #handmade

Thank you so much! The spindle is by Mingo Asho on etsy!

Finished up a mommy and me first sewing project with my 6 year old! She did great and looks so darn cute in her #minipagehoodie 💖 #sewing #sewist #sew #fabric #handmade

Thanks for your help!! Always so many good options!!

I’m not totally sure what I’m planning! Some kind of garment if I can squeak out the yardage for it! I did swatch this yarn which helped me decide for sure. I shared a picture of the swatch if you’re interested, haha it’s a lot prettier than the yarn 😂 Thanks for your help!

Thank you!! 😊

Haha Thank you!! I didn’t even sample for a 2ply 😂 But I agree, this heathery yarn is a fun experiment!

Thank you so much! 😊❤️

Thank you so much!

Thank you!!

Probably a garment? I agree about the 3 ply and thank you!!

Thank you so much!! It’s a really fun process!

Thank you!! I’m loving the yarn so much more now that it’s knit up!!

A knit swatch still on knitting needles sitting on a concrete floor. The yarn is a purple, teal and green heather.

For anyone interested, here is a swatch I knit up of my 3-ply combo drafted spin I shared earlier, and I think I might love it?? so heathery! Now to decide if I keep it or scrap it for a traditional 2ply?? 🤔 #spinningyarn #handspunyarn #handspinning #yarn #handmade #handspun

Oh that’s beautiful!! I just finished a swatch of the combo draft and I agree knitting up a sample definitely helped 🙌

That would be such a fun way to keep the heather but lose the mud, thanks for the suggestion!!

Thank you so much!! I’m coming around to it I think!

A colorful heathered mini skein of yarn twisted on top of fiber that is blue, purple, green and rust colored.

So I’m doing a combo drafting experiment and I’m trying to decide if the colors are getting too swampy? I LOVE these two braids, but am wondering if they would be better served as a traditional 2ply? What are your thoughts? #handspun #yarn #spinningyarn #handspunyarn #spinningyarn

Thank you!!

Omg those rolags!! 😍
