Black Butterfly

Last year I started spinning silk with merino on my spindle. I did not give an update on my progress. It would have been rather boring. I either spun that week or I didn’t.
I did manage to keep spinning about 10 minutes a day. And even started a shawl.



It’s the Vlinder Shawl from the book Knitting Brioche by Nancy Marchant. Vlinder is the Dutch word for butterfly. I have a while to spindle before I’m done. I did finish a second spindle and I’m plying it. That should give me a bit to knit with.
