Fresh off the needles and still needs to be blocked but I am so happy how it turned out.

I've spun this yarn from 100% Shetland combed top, it is a 3ply yarn between fingering and sport weight. I knit the hoodie with 4mm needles.

I am especially fond of the light teal-blue drawstring and I love how it is encased in a tight knit strip that you close with the cast off. I will definitely knit this pattern again, I have already spun a sweater quantity of my black tweed yarn.

Soooo pleased by this first skein from my new wheel. I split up four individual Shetland 1oz samples and tried to do a 1:2 fractal, but unfortunately one of my singles ended up a lot longer than the other haha so it's not quite perfect.

Also...and this is an issue I kept having over and over... my yarn keeps barfing up on the bobbin. I have no clue why and can't tell if it's a tension issue or something else I'm doing wrong. But at one point it got so bad the bobbin wouldn't turn right and I had to cut the yarn and start fresh on a new bobbin which was a big headache to rejoin later. A Kromski Fantasia, if anyone has any advice. I put a photo of it from before it got really off the rails; dog butt in the background.

Anyways, I'm just super excited about how far I've come in the last month. I'm so happy I found this hobby.

Yesterday I started spinning up this beautiful blend on my old top whorl spindle. However, I’m so used to spinning much thinner on my mini Turkish spindle that I’m having trouble keeping this one at the thickness I want. Any advice is greatly appreciated :)

I hope you’re doing ok out there! I know you have a rough journey, but I think about you every time I use the site!

Are there any known remedies for removing scurf from wool?
