I just finished this thick and thin thread ply. Thistle Down - Merino/ Mulberry silk plied with cashmere/ alpaca/silk thread. It is like a cloud, it is so soft! Then hit the Turk spinning some a one off set of rolags. Happy Tuesday!

JK Fiber Arts has been on a break. We had the most amazing trip to the San Juan Islands and the Olympic Peninsula! And of course, I stopped at several fiber arts shops! My favorite was this comfy, welcoming, gem of a shop on Bainbridge Island, Artful Ewe, and I immediately became friends with owner, Heidi. She is a one woman show, and what a show it is! The hand dyed kid mohair locks I bought are to die for!! Coming soon to art batts near you!😂
The Pacific Northwest put on a great show for us we saw orcas, rainforest, Mount Olympus, Mount Ranier at sunset, Ruby Beach, Hurricane Ridge, and biked many miles of the Olympic Discovery Trail. We saw stunning sunsets on orcas Island, and beautiful sunrises in Port Angeles. And so, so much more! The Pacific Northwest gets ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!

What a beautiful evening to sit on the deck and spin until sunset. Spinning my Just Ducky custom blend merino, mulberry silk and tussah silk . I am almost done with my Waiting For Rain shawl spin. I am on my last bobbin! Then I ply!

My baby turtle is born! I could not resist spinning my Good Morning Rolags. I just took the Butterfly Garden Turtle off because it was so heavy it was hurting my fingers to spin it. It weighed in at 4.3 oz!! I am going to spin the butterfly reject rolags( look imperfect but spin great) on this spindle too then ply it with Butterfly Garden. I love my Turk!

I love Malik Farm’s Coopworth/Alpaca socks from their locally raised Coopworth sheep. They are so comfortable and durable, and soon to be available in colors at Looped In Fiber Arts!

TDF 2026 Stage 15: Plying Day!! Love my Emerald City sock spin, BFL/Mohair, and Watercolor Skies, Polwarth, 2-ply!

TDF Stage 13: Plying Day! Great success! Boy that auto level winder makes much prettier bobbins than relying on me to move my hooks! The Emerald City yarn is my fave of the tour so far,BFL/Mohair, but it was impossible to take a good picture of it because of all the smoke in the air. The light was this weirdest yellow color all day through the haze. hopefully I’ll get some better pics once it dries and we can see the sun and sky.

TDF Stage 11: Water Color Skies on Polwarth spun thick singles. Tomorrow is plying day!!!

Here’s your happy! I had a wonderful afternoon at Susan Anderson Withnell’s farm today. She invited us over to visit her 75-94% Wensleydale lambs. They are so cute! I took so many pictures! She is trying to find homes for some of her lambs. You can message her directly if interested. I am hoping I can catch up on some of my scouring so I can get one of these Wendsleydale fleeces!
