Here is a group picture of the small skeins that I have spun up most where done with the home made spinning wheel but a few where done on the drop spindle. I will come back at a later date and list each one separate. They are so much prettier by their selves. These are all super wash Merino except two that where Romney top.



Super wash Merino fiber spun up thick and thin a very pretty rose pick.I spun this on my home made wheel. It is around two oz's. 


Here is some more super wash Merino that I played around with different colors and I love the mix of the yellow, darker grey with the orange. This spun up thick and thin into Art yarn. I also done this one on my home made wheel. I have not got the yardage on this as of yet but I think it is around a little over a oz of fiber.



Here is some super wash merino that I spun up on my homemade wheel. It turn out like Art yarn. I rather like it. It is about 2 oz of fiber. All the colors turn out quite nicely together. What I did was take 1 oz bags and made some thick rolags with them mixing the colors together. I wanted a thicker art yarn that is why I made the rolags thick.

Getting my FO's together

I am in the midst of trying to get my FO's together to take pictures and show them here on my blog and you tube channel Crochethabit. I have items crochet and some knitted by hand needles and some knitting on the knitting looms, some on knitting machines. I also have some yarn that I have spin on the drop spindle and I had needles felt projects --about 14 animal projects for my 8 grand kids. They all have them I could not keep those long enough to get pictures.Oh well, next time I will get pictures before they know I have them finished.
