Applecart




I finished spinning this yarn at Wisconsin Sheep and Wool. The first photo is me plying from under a blanket, that is Friday morning at our campsite. The wind was strong and I was cold. I was in a sweatshirt, jeans, wool socks,and the blanket. I made many cups of tea but you cannot hold tea and spin! 
The yarn is cotton, 587 yards, 3oz two ply lace weight, with a WPI of 22. I also made a mini skein which is 46 yards, chain played, and 14 WPI which is light or sport weight.
Truthfully, I didn't enjoy this spin. It had lots of veg., noils, neps, and frustration inside. The finished yarn is lovely however and my affection is growing.
