Yarn Organization 030Another Handspun here, this one with a title: Forest Path.  This was spun from some batts I made when I was first learning to play with my carder.  I learned when spinning these that I needed to load my carder up much less… the batts were so tightly packed that I had to do a lot of predrafting.  Finally I just became tired of fighting, and spun it as a think and thin.  It’s a bit overspun in places, but it gives it a nice texture.

The details:  I’ve got 4.2 oz and about 180 yrds.  Thick and thin, about worsted average, getting up to bulky and down to fingering.  Single ply.
