My fleece that was sent down to The Natural Fibre Company returned as yarn on Thursday. It was really exciting waiting for the postman to come on Thursday and he delivered 2 big bags of un twisted hanks, 13Kilos in total (130 hanks).
I have dropped some off at Hebridean Hobby Crafts in Stornoway and I am in the process of twisting the rest. Just waiting for my labels to come that I have ordered and they will officially be on sale, both in Stornoway and on my Folksy.com shop.
10 un twisted hanks, and 10 I have twisted myself
I have had a split of weights made, half Double Knitting and half Aran so have a choice of patterns to design now, and for a sneaky peak I have put a picture below of my first, and soon to be made into a kit, Aran pattern, lovely little baby booties! pattern to write up now and just waiting for needles that I have ordered to add and the kits will be on sale too.
Just off for a run now, the sun has been shining all afternoon and I like to run from my house as I can see the sea! I love living here on the Island.
