Continuing on my quest to find out how much fiber I can pack on the Magpie Standard bobbin. So far I’m a bit over 13 oz! I just started spinning up these two braids of gorgeousness. The colorway is Mallard on Polwarth/Black Bamboo/Silk 50/25/25. #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #spin15aday #magpiespinner #electricspinningwheel #daedalusspinningwheels #3dprinting #spottedewefibers #greenwoodfiberworks

Today’s snack curtesy of eggs from @smithbrosfarms is some super delicious deviled eggs. Recipe calls for 6 hard boiled eggs. The yolks are mixed with 2 TBSP miracle whip, 1/2 tsp yellow mustard, 2 TBSP sweet relish, fresh ground pepper to taste, and lightly topped with Paprika. Two were already consumed for testing whether to use Paprika or Smoked Paprika. Normal was the victor. #smithbrothersfarms #pandemicsnack #deviledeggs

I spun thee entirely across 4 cops with my Geranium Medium whorl. This is one of my favorite Akerworks spindles. Though I have a lot of favorites. 🤣 The singles we’re then plied on my Starlings Mini.

First skein on the left and second on the right.

First skein on the Super Skeiner and second skein all skeined up. I was quite worried that this project would not be as consistent as my newer yarns as thi was started back in 2015 and I spun on it sporadically but overall I think they came out beautifully.

Incoming pretty photo spree. I finished reskeining both of these today. I typically reskein after washing for prettier skeins to photograph. I ended up with 502 yards between the two.

Well.... Magpie has devoured the second 4 oz braid of Ariel Remix by @spottedewefibers that I started last week Tuesday! This was such a joy to spin but now it time for something different! I’ll be working on my Frog Pajamas on Starla the Starlings Mini and Magpie is ready to tackle some pretties from @greenwoodfiberworks. This bird is a serious machine and boy does she get things done!

SQUEE!!! It feels so good to finally finish this spindle project I started in November of 2015! This was all spun on an @akerworks Geranium.

Getting ready to ply this spindle project! I’ve decided on chain plying. This will result in two 2 oz skeins. I love plying my Akerworks Modular spindles when using the AlerKate as a Spindle Kate.

I cannot believe I finished this today! Got in a lot of spinning today with @copper_moth and @darthbiblio earlier in the day on FaceTime. Later in the day I joined @heavenlyknitchet’s Zoom meet and spun a lot chatting with both Heavenly and @deepdyedyarns. It was a productive spinning/social day. ❤️ Fiber is Organic Polwarth/Silk 75/25 dyed by @woolgatherings. #Akerworksspindles #Geranium #handspunstagram #spinstagram #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #handspun #handspunyarn #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #fiberyfun365 #woolgatherings

I finished this gorgeous Targhee spin during the @daedalusspinningwheels Zoom Spin in on Wednesday. This project and this wheel has been such an immense source of peacefulness for it. It’s brought me so many smiles and makes my heart sing whenever I worked on it. I enjoyed it so much I had to order a second braid from @spottedewefibers. After I finish another 4 oz of this colorway I should be able to fit 2 more 4 oz braids into this bobbin. I haven’t picked yet what will be next. At the moment I’ve got about 9 oz packed on.

Picked up this gorgeousness from @greenwoodfiberworks. I was looking forward to seeing Carolyn at Ply Away. Super sad about that but I know I’ll see her another time. I’m super excited about these two braids as this blend is one I’ve never seen. It feel as amazing as it looks!!!
