Two new layers of the last braid of the TdF gradient by @fossilfibers. The white area was a bit tricky as the braid had collected a wee bit of fiber from the other braids that I had to pick out to make sure there weren't any random blue and green fibers mixed in. The apron used as the background for this photo was made by @lidiacallanaupaalvarez of Chinchero.

I've been watching videos through @janestaffordtextiles and looking over my samples from Jane to get an idea of how I want to draft up my very first handspun weaving project. This is a huge step for me in my weaving. I will be honest to say I am extremely nervous but Jane's guild videos along with the help of my weaving friends has helped my confidence, I can do this. The background is a large manta woven by 2 weavers. Three panels were woven by Martha Quispe Turpo and one panel by Asunta Quispe Espinoza from Santa Cruze de Sallac.

Cranberry Orange juice... that's what this part of the braid reminds me of. I love the way these colors go so beautifully with the yellow of Dandillion the Starling V3FP.

Starting in on the last braid of the Tour de Fleece Gradient by @fossilfibers. These colors are so beautiful both the dyeing by Fossil Fibers and the natural dyed spindle spun yarns used to weave the apron I’m using as the background here.

OH MY SQUEE!!!! New spindles!!!! The first one is my very first spindle made by @brewergnome. While on a zoom with @longdrawjames he asked if I had seen the latest spindle that Dan was working on that featured opal inlaid geckos. I immediately had to go hunt the post down and then reach out to Dan to see if anyone had called dibs on it yet. It's such a beautiful spindle. I'm so impressed with the inlay work, especially with these tiny little gecko toes! I've been spinning some Merino/Silk 50/50 by Judith MacKenzie on it, so lovely to spin. The second spindle is one from @spanish_peacock. The teal dymalux shaft really caught my eye and pairs so beautifully with the Holly whorl. Background textiles: Natural colored textile was woven by Urbana Turpo Ccori of Sallac. The Blue/Green woven textile was made by Christina Ylla Ccallisea of Chahuaytire.

w000 I finished Project Peace Cowl that I started back in 2019! I also designed a pair of matching mitts to go with it. This was my first spin on my Starling Mini. I used @woolwench's tie-dye technique on the yarn. Project Peace Cowl by @thehealthyknitter Fingerless Mitts were designed by me. Spun on a Daedalus Starling Mini and chain plied on a Daedalus Starling XL. #daedalusspinningwheels #electricspinningwheel #igspinnersinspiration #wemakeyarn #spinnersoftheworld #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #espinner #igspinners #handspunyarn #handspinning #yarnspinners #fiberfeature #wemakeyarn #starlingspinner #karbonzneedles #knittersofinstagram #igknitters #knittersofig #knitting #knitting_inspiration #instaknit #i_loveknitting #projectpeacecowl

The last of the fiber for my Minas Morgul project has been spun up! These last few batts were carded up by @longdrawjames to be the weft to complement the Minas Morgul warp. Now I just need to ply all this up, figure out my yardage and plan out how I'm going to weave this all up. The background is a large manta woven by 2 weavers. Three panels were woven by Martha Quispe Turpo and one panel by Asunta Quispe Espinoza from Santa Cruze de Sallac.

Getting closer to finishing the second braid of the Tour de Fleece Gradient by @fossilfibers. There may have been a wee bit of sadness when the last of that blue was spun up. It's such a gorgeous blue and the silk only adds to its beauty! #fossilfibers #fossilfiberstdf22 #igspinnersinspiration #wemakeyarn #spinnersoftheworld #igspinners #handspunyarn #yarnspinners #tourdefleece #tourdefleece2022 #daedalusspinningwheels #daedalusstarling
