I dyed the yarn using KoolAid, posted April 19 as Guess I’m Not A Vanilla Type Of Gal. I have been very slowly spinning the yarn. I decided I don’t like this yarn. I think it was Polworth. I bought something “cheap” to practice with. To me, it is as if I’m spinning with iron! It was great fun dyeing. Another reason I haven’t finished the yarn is that I don’t have a clue as what to knit. If you know me, that is not usual! 😎 I’m open for suggestions!
This was the dyed fiber.
This is the spun fiber on the spool.
I’ll be ready to ply soon. Input needed! What should I knit? So not my colors! 😎
You can always knit a hat and then give it to a charitable organization like your local Salvation Army or something.

Wow! I’m so surprised you didn’t like spinning the polwarth. I have only used polwarth once and I got it from an etsy shop named Greenwood Fiberworks. It was so soft and easy to draft…Did it get a little matty during the dyeing process? I’ve heard that happens sometimes. Well, it certainly looks lovely! 🙂 I’m a sucker for bright colored yarns! I like the idea of a hat or maybe a bag or two. Maybe one felted! I get all over the place with something to make…But you asked, lol!
