While I was knitting away for the Yarnbomb Columbia project, I needed a spinning project that wasn’t too demanding. In other words, a fiber I was familiar with and could just enjoy. I decided that another skein of that luscious Chasing Rainbows bombyx silk was the perfect thing. This is the same company that made the New Blue fiber that I posted about back in May, about spinning exotic fibers.
This time I spun a colorway called “Starry Night” – lovely turquoise and darker blues. I’m really happy with the way it came out.
To catch up visually, I’m including a little gallery here of both colorways.
