Biloxi Blues


When I purchased one of the hand spindles I wrote about a few months ago, I received some wool batts with the spindle. It's the Biloxi Blues colorway from Maine Woods Yarn and Fiber (www.mainewoodsyarn.com). I finished spinning and plying a week or so ago and here it is: About 278 yards of double-plied at about DK weight. I haven't figured out the wpi on it yet to be sure. It weighs in at 4.8 ounces, so it might be closer to worsted weight instead. I really like how the colors work together and the white just makes the whole skein pop!
