Spinning and painting wool


I willingly admit to having a fiber fetish, so fabulous what can be done with it. And I have only scratched the surface of all the different kinds. This is Norwegian C1 wool. I got it in unwashed and uncarded (would have been better to properly read the description..) But hey, what's a girl to do but wash and card it. This is just a fraction of the 3 kilos I ordered :-P

It spins like magic and I only half carded it to keep all the uneven bits so as to make a nicely structured yarn. An I painted it my very mostest favorite color. Moss like I find deep in the dark magical woods.
