Handspun Friday - Old Forge # 3 Part I

As Old Forge # 2 is almost finished (only the knit on border to go, as soon as I get the fiber to spin more yarn, since I ran out), I've started spinning for # 3. Here's the colors for it. I've finished the contrast colors, only Pale Aqua as the main color to go.


Here's what I did. I've used 6oz of Tangerine, 8oz Magenta, and 6oz Sangria to make seven skeins. I've done this before, it's so much fun!



There's a lot more yardage than I need for the middle part, so I'm going to use the left over yarn for something before I do the border. I can't wait to see how it looks knit up.

This photo was taken in direct sunlight.



This one's taken in the shade. The colors are quite true here, but still, they look much better in person. I wish I could copy/paste and have another set of those skeins!



Now I have "only" 34oz of Pale Aqua to spin, and I'm set to start #3! But I'm going to take a little Falkland spinning break, and try a few different fibers to spin in between.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Who said, Denny is not a Sloth because he's not hanging?


And what I love to see when I'm spinning:

Happy and Denny sharing the sofa = rare.
