What Can I Make With This Yarn?
What Can I Make With This Yarn?
Each skein of my Hand Spun Yarn is enough to make a Beret or Fingerless mitts*. Two skeins are enough for a Hat, Gloves, or Cowl*. Three or more are enough for a Shawl, Scarf, or mixed with your favorite solid color yarn, a Sweater*!
Hand Spun is great for making Shawls, Gloves, Hats, Scarves, and Socks. My Hand spun works particularly well as the yoke of a color-work sweater, or in the Nightshift Shawl Pattern.
*This estimate is dependent upon the pattern you choose.

How Was This Yarn Made?
How Was This Yarn Made?
To create this Yarn:
- I spun up a beautiful Merino braid Hand Dyed by Malabrigo.
- I paired it with Merino/Tencel braid Hand Dyed by Spinner's Hill.
- I spun one braid in large chunks, and one braid in small strands so when plied together, the colors mix together in new and exciting ways throughout the skein.
The finished yarn was inspired by the bright primary color play of child's finger painting set!
