Handspun Yarn |
|
|
Knitting with handspun yarn is so much fun. There is something indescribably luxurious and satisfying about working with it.
REMEMBER! The colors that you see on your computer monitor may not be the exact colors of the item. Every monitor is different. Therefore, I have also included a description of the color and yarn used in each piece.
Below are knitted samples of two of my variegated yarns. See how nicely the variegation appears throughout each piece. | |

I hand-dyed the wool roving and then spun each ply by repeating the color variations. The resulting 2-ply yarn knits up in pleasing color variants that avoid the splotches of color you sometimes get with variegated yarns. This woolen-spun yarn is loosely plied, giving it loft and softness.
