tour de fleece – the final wrap-up
So! I accomplished my goal of spinning every day, and got quite a bit done.
These four skeins are the only ones I spun in their entirety during the Tour – I also plied some silver merino/silk and spun and plied the rest of some tussah silk.
So how about some glamour shots and stats?
Ashland Bay Merino Silk in Cranberry – 300 yards/100g of 2ply, worsted weight.
Spirit Trail silk/camel – 320 yds/4oz of 3ply (chain ply), DK weight.
Foxfire 95% cormo, 5% silk – 350 yds/4oz of 2ply, sport weight.
and one that I snuck in the last few days of the Tour – a skein of 100% cormo that I am absolutely in love with!
100% cormo, 300 yds/100g of 3ply (chain ply), sport weight.
I’m not sure what my grand total is, because of the aforementioned finishing stuff up that was already on the bobbin. But I do know that I’m feeling really re-inspired to get back to the wheel, and I’ve already started some awesome wool/angora. I’m gonna keep spinning down the stash until Rhinebeck!

That cormo is do die for !!
Really beautiful work. Now why did you have to go and link to that Foxfire site? I want *everything* on it now. 
Beautiful! Love the cranberry!
