Sitting on a yellow, gold and black coffee table is an adjustable spindle lazy kate. It is decorated with the word Serenity in both English and Chinese. It is holding one spindle that has plied yarn on the shaft. To the right of it is a niddy noddy with some of the plied yarn wrapped on it.

On the same gold table is a skein of qiviut yarn sitting in sunlight.

The same yarn skein, but the photo is a close-up of the end.

Two skeins of yarn are side by side on the table in the sunlight. The bottom skein of qiviut yarn is store bought.

I got 221.6 yards of qiviut yarn out of the 1 ounce of fiber. This is my first laceweight project. I am ridiculously proud of this spin. Now to find just the right knitting project for it. #handspun #yarnspinner #qiviutyarn #spindlespun #spindlelazykate #yarn #handspunyarn #yarnlover #laceweightyarn

A Jensen Tina 2 castle style spinning wheel sitting in front of a book shelf. There are 2 wheel bobbins with spun singles of wool showing and a skein of qiviut laceweight yarn hanging from part of the distaff on the wheel. It is 221.6 yards that was spindle spun out of one ounce of fiber.

I just couldn't go to bed without finding out the yardage. I got 221.6 yards out of the 1 ounce of qiviut. It is now in the bath to set the twist. I will be sure to share a photo tomorrow once it's dry. #fiberarts #spindlespinning #spinningwheel #qiviutyarn #handspunyarn

A high whorl drop spindle held close to the camera showing the beginning of the plied yarn clearly. The background is blurry, but it has 2 glasses holding 2 high whorl spindles.

Two Disney themed drinking glasses. Each one has an upside down high whorl spindle in it. There is a single of yarn coming out of each glass.

A hand and wrist is on the left side of the photo. There is a single of yarn wrapped loosely around the wrist with 2 singles of yarn coming from the wrapped wrist to a very full high whorl drop spindle.

A blue cloth background is underneath a wooden birdseye maple high whorl drop spindle. The spindle has a medium size oval shaped copper of spun and plied qiviut yarn on it. The yarn is a grayish brown color. It is 1 ounce of laceweight yarn.

After 3 straight hours of work, the qiviut is plied. I'm really happy that I got the spin right and none of it separated while plying. I used my andean plying trick near the end to keep it a continuous yarn. Tomorrow I'll know my yardage. #spindlespinning #yarnspinner #qiviutyarn #highwhorlspindle

Looking down on a multi blue colored rope bowl from above. Inside the bowl is a brownish qiviut roving and 2 high whorl spindles lying on top of the fiber. One is made with a reddish wood and a light wood on the top. The one to the right of that is a light brown spindle made from a wooden toy wheel as the whorl. The reddish spindle has a cone shaped single yarn filling it. The other spindle also has a single of yarn wrapped in a cone shape but it has less yarn on it.

My progress report of the qiviut in progress. #dropspindles #spinningyarn #handspun #qiviut #qiviutyarn
