art yarn

A few weeks ago I bought Lexi Boeger's book, Intertwined , about spinning unique yarns using a variety of new techniques. So I am Completely Inspired!!!! Although maybe I will continue to increase my more traditional spinning skills, I am also keen to play around with fibre too. So I attempted my first art yarn, using some ratty old roving that I dyed last week, some bits of sari fibre left over from my Blendy box sampler , I cut up a sari skirt that never fit me and weren't really my colours and spun a thick and thin single using a thread for stability through the whole skein. Here is the result:

And last night we had this sunset:

I can see that sunset inspiring some fibre adventure too sometime.
