I’ve been away for a couple of days because I had to spin some new yarns for my Etsy shop.
I wanted to add some 2-ply to my collection (2-ply are getting a lot of hearts on Etsy), but I had forgotten how hard and time consuming is handspinning this kind of yarns.
I’m now plying my first one…

… and have another bag of predrafted handpainted roving waiting for me:

They’re turning out wonderful, but my backache is growing. Silly of me!
I’m still writing descriptions and setting prices for my yarns, so do not have much time to blog.
However, I couldn’t resist to show up how lovely my handmade labels look once wrapped around the hanks:

I love them!
P.S.:No need to say that anyone can make these labels, maybe much better than I did.
I know…
But they are MY handmade labels, and I’m feeling foolishly proud.
