More Than Yarn

Spinning for Socks Attempt #1

So when I first started spinning, my big goal was to spin yarn to knit a pair of socks. Now that I’ve been in the mood to knit socks again, I gave it a shot.

I bought this fiber from Two If By Hand. It’s superwash BFL and the color is called Vixen.

The plan was to 2ply it and get about 400 yards. Well, I think I was too cautious about not getting enough yardage because it’s too thin!

550 yards. Oops!
