Some more spinning

But not by me, it's some more yarn from one of my customers, and it's so gorgeous that I had to share.













This is one of the batts I made for the Tour de France this year called Maillot Vert, it's not available right now, but might make a re-appearance for next year's tour. It's a blend of Merino, Gotland Wool, Tussah Silk and Yak down, Elin, who spun it said that it was softer than she expected with a lovely halo (which will be from the Yak down).

Thank Elin for permission to use the photos, your spinning is wonderful. Elin blogs here if you would like to see more photos of her beautiful spinning- http://theknittingseaman.blogspot.com/
