    Description

    It’s time for me to downsize my smoke-free, pet-friendly home craft studio collection to something I might have a chance to finish in one or two lifetimes! I’m hoping to find eBaying stitchers out there, ready to sit down with their spinning wheels to 'spin a fine yarn' for an anticipated project, simultaneously keeping hands busy in these difficult times.
    Spinning has been the craft I picked up last, but has turned into my most productive one, channeling zen-filled hours into producing my own yarn for my knitting.  But I've got extra materials in this discipline, as in my needle working pursuits, so I'm offering this first gorgeous
    Seafood
    Merino Wool roving, one of three 'bumps' from the same dye pot, that
    I've had stored together in my pet-friendly, smoke-free fiber storage room.
    But this lovely soft, medium-soft hand roving really needs a new home, where it can fulfill its' promise of beautiful yarn.
    My favorite use for most of fiber I spin is in afghans and outer wear. The fiber has a pretty soft 'hand', but I would caution against using it for in next-to-skin projects, particularly if the wearer is particularly sensitive to animal hair
    . Generally, I knit my spun wool, but I know many weavers who spin for the purpose of making up woven products, as well.
    What a blessing to be able to turn our unexpectedly idle hours into productive ones!
    Happy Spinning!
    *Please note: roving is meant for hand spinning into yarn.  In most cases, it can't be knit or crocheted  until spun.
