learning

This week I decided that I would teach myself how to Navajo ply mainly because I want to be able to spin self striping yarn that is plied. I also haven't made any three ply yarn yet soo, I figured this was a good chance. I spun up 70 or so grams of this neon orange corriedale that I got in a sample pack when I bought my spindle in October and went about learning how to Navajo ply - this is what I got.

Its much, much brighter in person

Turns out, I LOVE Navajo plying, love it.I like the motions and I like what comes out and I like that I don't have to worry about the yardage of bobbins being more or less the same. Oh, and for whatever reason, its really easy for me.
