I decided to tackle washing this in thirds, separating the red away from the cream (SO glad I put plenty of brown between those two). Now that I've crunched the numbers, the first third is caked and ready to go! I can chair to see how this works up.

This is one of the biggest hanks of my own handspun yet! And it's actually only half of the yarn for the project. Time to get started on my biggest tapestry to date!

I caked up my singles before plying because I don't think this will all fit into one bobbin and I only have three! They were so pretty just like this I had to share. 🤍🤎❤️🤎🤍 Fiber from @livingdreamsyarn and @wildethyme. #connieleespins #wildethymeart #livingdreamsyarn https://www.instagram.com/p/CKmhZLkJhc5/?igshid=1fl3wmg0zx1v4
Whew! This has been on my spinning wheel for a while. Time for something smaller while this rests! Fiber from @wildethyme and @livingdreamsyarn. #connieleespins #wildethymeart #livingdreamsyarn https://www.instagram.com/p/CKPvHuQpsTp/?igshid=1bp48k2bfyku7
All done! Fabulous red is from @karendawnknits and blue is my handspun from a batch of mill ends from @livingdreamsyarn. #livingdreamsyarn #roundtableyarns https://www.instagram.com/p/B9PWHxwlHT-/?igshid=1ns6p61vcxqtx
Nope. This part still takes some kind of black magic that I have yet to figure out! I literally sit there with my tongue sticking out while I awkwardly try to maneuver the pointy sticks... The fabulous red yarn is Tristan in A Wounded Knight from @karendawnknits and the blue is my own handspun (!) using fiber from @livingdreamsyarn. #roundtableyarns #livingdreamsyarn https://www.instagram.com/p/B9KV5fqJkFG/?igshid=1gpgnqdxay1np
