Wound Too Tight

Spent most of the weekend playing with fiber. I don't always allow myself the luxury of spinning what I produce to sell to other people to pay for having all this fun raising my own fiber. I do like to do some "quality control testing," while spinning and knitting my own yarn. My spinning is slightly tight and overspun, more so with plying, giving my yarn a "left hand bias" while knitting. I don't really have the energy or determination right now to remedy that problem, but the worsted spun makes for great sock yarn, so what's the worry?

  1. that's right no worries - overspun just means energized anyway! You're entitled to enjoy the fruits of all your labor :)
