First Handspun Silk Samples

[vaneramos]

djjo and I attended the Ontario Handspinning Seminar on the weekend. It was my first. The theme this year was silk, so I took the workshop focusing on an introduction to spinning with silk. These are my samples. The one on the right is an 80/20 wool/silk blend from Wellington Fibres. On the left is a blend I made on the hand carders, mostly dyed tussa silk with just a little natural black wool. Much fun was had.
