With Merry's Gracious Permission

Day 54: This, with Merry's gracious permission, is what I have accomplished on the spinning front in the last month. Admittedly, I had part of one of the bobbins of "Green Chaos" done, but only as a singles. Here, both bobbins hold the finished double-ply yarn. It is roughly a DK weight. The "Salt and Pepper" bobbins are both single ply. They have to rest a few days to set the twist before I can ply them into a sock/fingering weight yarn. When I am done spinning all eight ounces of "Salt and Pepper," I will have three skeins (i.e., six bobbins of singles plied onto three bobbins. You may have noticed that there are two different types of bobbin here. I spin the singles on the Kromski Minstrel, and ply on my old Louët. My little Helper no longer tries to grab spinning wheel drive belts after having his nose gently sanded, but I still can't leave yarn without covering it with a lavender-scented towel. Lavender is a natural insect repellent, and it seems to work equally well as a curious-kitten deterrent. He gave it a good sniff, shook his head, batted his eyes and walked away.
