Finger Spinning on Chop Sticks

Yes!
You read that right. A couple months ago I read about that on a blog. I wish I had saved it so I could link here for you. It looked really neat!! I decided to try it out on the fiber I received this week in the ornament swap. You can see it in the 1st photo from the post below. Here is my progress today. 1/4 of the bag!!!







The label says 100% Wool. It feels like it may have some lama or alpaca in it. At least that is what my face is telling me LOL it itches a little. ;-) The spinning is coming out really nice though! Can't wait to see how much yardage I get out of it :D

2 New Yarns


These should be in my etsy sometime tomorrow. the 1st skein is spoken for already. Every other color in the picture is the same ;-) Berry Christmas & Old Bird.

Berry Christmas is full of the pink family, Orchid, Mauve, and Magenta.

Old Bird is a Striper. Depending on gauge you should get 2-3 rounds of color each. I tested with US 2 needles on 68 stitches in the round. The colors are a Sagey Grey and Flamingo Pink

Fun colors, Soft yarn. hope everyone likes it
