175 metres, 2 ply, organic merino fibre club fibre.
So soft its unbelievable.

I think it will be a cowl or scarf.

Can't see the pic. Is it last fibre club? I started spinning mine last night. Done about a quarter of it. Doing more tonight.

Is that better? I could see the pic but I have change to public photos on the Flickr now so it should be visible.

It was my first month so I didn't have any outstanding. i don't think I will be that quick with the rest!

Awwww, thank you.   Embarassed  blushes

I am so lucky to have a job that lets me do this.
I throw dye on fibre and I send it to you, and then... well to me it's not what you have in your hands, that squishy bundle of fibre or yarn, it's what you do with it... sends shivers down my spine (in a nice way), every time.

Fabulous! I'm still working with the red and yellow too - can't wait to start this one after seeing yours!

gorgeous spinning. I'm working on the same fibre right now. Finished spinning first half last night and hoping to do 2nd half today but got lots of dyeing to do too.

Wasn't too sure about the colour combo when I first got it but after seeing N's  test spin on her blog I changed my mind and seeing yours now, it looks gorgeous. I love the way my first bobbin of singles look. I'm just spinning mine randomly.

I can't wait to see yours Anni. I spun my first bobbin with long lengths of colour and then did the second with shorter lengths to mix the colour up a bit more.

I might start knitting with it today so it will be interesting to see how the colours are arranged.

Can't wait to see how it knits up. I'll post pics of mine when it's spun up. Got to concentrate on sock club parcels today but setting aside time for spinning this evening. Very Happy

I am like a kid with the novelty of spinning! I run round the house saying "look what I made!!" My poor husband and son think I am having some sort of mid-life thing!

It fascinates me!
