It just seemed to be a knitting kind of weekend. I've now finished 16 rounds on the Fearless Fairisle. For some reason, it just seemed to flow through my hands effortlessly. I also sewed and cut the back neckline and armholes for my Dale Lake Placid. Not to say that I didn't get any spinning done, though.

I've now spun 25 grams of Wendy's sock yarn. I switched spindles because my Alaskan just felt like it was getting too heavy for my comfort. I'm now spinning on my Grafton MtM Navajo Churro spindle (the one on the right). Since I wanted to spin one continuous 50 gram ball, I left the end of the Alaskan spindles unspun and started on the MtM spindle following the intended color sequence. I intend to spin 25 grams on this spindle and then Navajo 3ply the 2 spindles (one after the other) into one continuous 50 gram ball. Here's what I will do...

I will wind off my Alaskan spindle singles onto my nostepinde. This means the end I left untwisted will be wound onto the noste first and plied last (since I will ply from the outside of the noste ball). Then I will start Navajo 3 plying that back onto the Alaskan spindle. Once I reach the end of that 25 grams, the end will be untwisted, waiting for the next color sequence. I will then wind off my MtM spindle singles onto the nostepinde, which puts the beginning of the singles on the outside of the noste and ready to connect to my 3ply in the right color sequence. Make sense?

I'll take pix tonight of my progress and post.
