Spun Silk

Posted on | September 22, 2009 |

Luscious, soft and shiny silk! This is my first finished silk spinning project. I spun it on the wheel and it was very easy to do. It is Tussah Silk handpainted by Enchanted Knoll Farm in the Tia Dalma colorway. The fiber was a gift from a dear friend for my birthday. I had 1 oz and ended up with 180 yards of 2 ply, 24 WPI yarn.
