Fiber Club: Part 3

 This is my third and last club package from zebisis designs. I'm happy with everything I got and I would recomend this to all my fellow spinners if Maysha hosts an other round. Great products and fair prices!

This time I got a 1.31 oz. green sea sediment top whorl with rosewood shaft and gold hook. I especially like the carving of the shaft above the whorl. The grey fiber is a bonus gift, 46 gramms carbonized bamboo.

This month's fiber is very special: 3 oz. hand painted milk protein fiber. I didn't even know that this exists.. There's still no time to spin, but I'm very curious about working with this one!

Fiber Club: Part 2

Here's my second fiber club package from zebisis designs. I got a 1.07 oz. poppy jasper top whorl with carved hardwood shaft and gold filled hook. Such a beatuy! Usually, I don't like gold to much. But I think the golden hook matches the stone perfectly. The fiber is merino, bamboo, silk, soy silk and rambouillet carded roving in different shades of green with reddish-brown highlights. Unforetunately, I don't have time to spin because I have other things to do. But I can't wait to get started with this one!

Fiber Club: Part 1

Last year's christmas gift to myself was a membership in zebisisdesigns fiberclub for three months. Maysha makes wonderful stone whorled handspindles and beautiful fibres, too. The club deal is, you get one spindle and ca. 4 oz. fibre every month for three months. So, my christmas gift will last til march. A surprise box full of lovelyness every month. 

My fisrt club package contained this beautiful top whorl spindle. It has a handcarved rosewood shaft and a silver hook. I love the colour of the whorl. It looks like arctic ice and water.. It's a blue druzy and weights 0.92 oz.

 

The roving was this blue and green hand painted 50/50 merino silk top. It's so soft and fluffy! :-D Indeed, I'm a bit late posting this, because I already got it a month ago. That's why I can say this roving was such a pleasure to spin! But more about that and the yarn later!
