I think I've got this ball-winder thing out of my system. Maybe. (The husbeast has been laughing at me for hours.)
For those who care, the yarns are, from left to right: A Regia self-striping sock yarn of some kind; two balls (stacked) of Koigu KPPPM in color WhatInHellWasIThinking; next stack, top is Schachenmayr Catania in a variegated something, bottom is indigo SilkyWool from Elsebeth Lavold that I think needs to be turned into a pair of Knucks; next stack in front, top, Elann's "Luna", bottom, some chenille; far right stack, top, Doucer et Soie (yeah, that's right, I went insane and wound a skein into a ball), middle, Lamb's Pride Worsted, and bottom, Plymouth Encore. The big stack in the back is more Plymouth Encore that will hopefully be made into a Weasley Sweater for my nephew for Christmas. (Yeah. Another Christmas job.)
Now if you'll excuse me, my winding arm is tired.
what a relief! at 1am this morning i was winding some fearless fibers sock yarn. i'm glad i'm not the only yarn winding weirdo.
ReplyDeletei used my elsebeth lavold silky wool for knitty's branching out scarf. it was beauteous. yours would be even nicer, i'm thinkin'.
Ball winders rock. I just got one. And a SWIFT! You should get a swift. They rock even more.
ReplyDeleteAnd I am planning on winding perfectly nice balls of yarn into the home made kind any day now cos I can!!!
ps you're swearing A LOT! It's killing me. Love it!
