Spinning: Del Mar 'Denim'

Del Mar "Denim"

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Spindling: From Fluff to Stuff »

Instructions

This started as very fluffy and fairly slick fiber... I found it somewhat frustrating to spin, and it left bits of fluff everywhere! Spun and three-plied, though, it is much sturdier and the blue/green/white turned almost denim-y in appearance. I probably should have spun as a chunky single to show off the colorway, but I like this finished product after all.

Category: Spinning

Materials

Merino/Tussah top. Three 2 oz bundles = 60 yards of three-ply, somewhere between bulky and super-bulky.
