Although my tiny digital camera does not begin to do this beautiful
yarn justice......

or, it that doesn't work:

It was in a skein/slash/hank, DH helped me with my ball winder so that
I wouldn't break the yarn.

Hugs,
Noreen

I received a beautiful hank of handspun and handdyed yarn!!!! It is
about the weight of the Cobweb yarn, and I absolutely LOVE the colors,
sort of a varigate, with shades of blue, purple, lavender, mauve, and
all sort of heathery!!!!
Cher has totally inspired me to get on the spinning bandwagon, I've
been over to Interweave press to get SpinIt magazine and their PDF
files for beginning spinners.
She also sent me a gold pen, a notepad, and a beautiful housewarming
welcome card.
YES, I have a camera, and will take a picture of the yarn!!!!! Give
me a day to get my ducks in a row, and I'll post a tiny URL to see
Cher's handiwork.
Hugs,
Noreen

It's only a little bit of dyed fleece spun up...LOL...thankyou though.

By the way Noreen, that is what is known as Tops, I Dyed then combed three
or four colours together, blue pink and greenish blue...thus the result,
the combing of it made it come out in stripes of these colours, all
irregular, then I elongated it, and spun it from one end. As you can see
it is very very soft, but fleece done the same way, comes out just that
little bit less softer ... I shall have to send you a skein of that now so
that you can feel the difference. It all depends on the fleece of course,
Merino is very soft too...as is silk. I spin silk very finely, then ply it
with a matching silk thread, holding the thread tighter than the silk tops
or caps, I then end up with a tight boucle yarn, which is interesting. I
usually rainbow dye a silk cap in the microwave...I use my old microwave for
this.

Cheers.....Cher...trying desperately to get Noreen really started on this
spinning hobby....lol.
