A 2 ply with this lovely merino blend I got. All my coworkers are asking me to make stuff now that I have proper spinning wheel. Anyone else here into spinning yarn?

While I’m on the subject, would anyone else be interested in a write up? I don’t want the information to stay on Reddit. And while I’m VERY much not an expert, I can at least start posting resources for folk.

    Please post your spins! I’d love to an get a proper community going (and I’d love to drool over pictures of yarn…)

          They are an invasive pest here so I didn’t so much buy it as I did drive-by it 👀 jokes it was as humane as pest removal to save our native flora and fauna can be.

            Oooh, I’m presuming New Zealand then? Honestly, learning about possum fibre was a shock, when my coworkers told me about their possum wool scarf. I still think it’s a bit weird to wear the screaming bastards haha.
