Slow progress the last couple of days, with a lot more beach time than spinning time.

Handspun yarn singles - a layer of royal purple peeking out from underneath a layer transitioning from royal blue to deep teal, all with pops of bright blue sari silk.
Left: a perfect lace murex shell, fresh from the sea and unbleached - this shell has tan details on the body of the shell, with off-white “lacy” protrusions; middle: a wenteltrap shell, which is a tiny, bright white, conical shell with spiraling ridges; right: an alphabet cone shell - this shell is off-white with brown dots and dashes as patterning, similar in appearance to written letters.
Yesterday’s spinning, and my favorite 3 shell acquisitions from the trip so far!

I used the rest day as make up. I finished the singles for my first spin and started on the next - a jewel-tone gradient batt set that will be chain-plied.

Handspun yarn singles on a black 3D printed bobbin.
Missed stages 13 & 14 due to work/travel, but I plan to spin today (7/21) which is a rest day as a make-up. I got about 0.5oz done yesterday.

Black 3D printed bobbin with handspun singles. Colors showing range from light pink to teal-tinted slate gray.
7/15 was a rest day, and I took it. 7/16 was my fiber arts group meetup, so I got to spin a good bit!

Pink 3D printed bobbin with a layer of cream-colored handspun singles under a layer of burgundy handspun singles.
A black 3D printed bobbin with handspun yarn singles going from very light teal, to cream, to very light pink, then gradually transitioning into burgundy and back to light pink. This is the same fiber as the other bobbin but shows shorter color sections.
Spent the day at the Friendship Fiber Guild meeting and got a lot done!

Wednesdays are meetups with my fiber friends, so I got a lot done. Tonight after work my dog has training, so I don’t expect to spin much, but I’m hoping to finish the last 0.5oz of this braid.

Handspun yarn singles that fade from slate gray to teal on a bright pink 3D printed bobbin.
Stage 4: my bobbin is bigger but basically identical in color to Stage 3 as I hit halfway in the braid right at the end of the bobbin.

Pink 3D printed bobbin filled across with yarn singles going from a medium teal-gray to a darker slate gray.
Stage 3! It was a hectic work day and I got home an hour late, but I managed to get some spinning in.

Handspun yarn singles that fade from a light teal and cream to a darker teal and slate gray, resting on a bright rosey pink 3D printed bobbin. The words “Daedalus Martin” peek through below the bobbin and “Stage 2: 7/6” has been added to the image in pink font.
Productive weekend! Progress will slow for the work week, but my goal is to spin at least a little every day.

It’s Tour de Fleece time! I am still working on my rainbow, but I wanted to start something new for the Tour.

All the way to yellow! Yellow is color 20/64, so I’m almost 1/3 of the way done. It’s so fun to watch the colors progress.

Every 4th color is the unblended representation of what I got from the dyer. Color 4 = magenta, 8 = red, 12 = coral, 16 = orange, 20 = yellow.

5 colors down, 59 to go! 😆
I’m really loving this spin - I can’t wait to get to the next color, and semi-woolen drafting is so easy on my hands. #draftslikebutter

First 3 colors of the rainbow completed on all 3 bobbins! Yes, I know this documentation is a bit obsessive, and yes, I know I’m unlikely to maintain it. Humor me 😆

You won’t get many finished yarn photos for a while - just updates on this 2lb rainbow spin! It was 16 colors, but I blended them to make smoother transitions.

This one didn’t have a name or a fiber type on the label. I *think* it’s probably Polwarth - it’s super plump and squishy. It was dyed by Rock and String Creations.

Another one bites the dust!
I can’t get over how satisfying it is to my perfectionist inclinations to have the plies be this close to even in length.

Next up in recently completed yarns - this one is “purple glow” and was dyed by Woolfiend on a gorgeous gray Merino / Tussah silk. Such a beautiful drape and sheen!

Finally got around to doing some photographing - but now I’ve had to decide which to share first! I went with “snozberries” by #fourriversyarnfiber
