My first skein of yarn!


My first skein of yarn!
Originally uploaded by cimorenegal.
I got some silk hankies off etsy, and I spun them up over the last few days. Hankies are a ton of fun and I'm really happy with how this turned out but I am going to spin some white silk I got from Castleman to ply with it, because it's my first yarn and its thin in places. Also, since it is my first yarn it is pretty thick and thin, but I love it and I can't wait to get more hankies so I can do more silk spinning. I think hankies really might be ideal for new spinners- they seem soooo much easier to spin than wool.
