Geeze, I Need to Update More Often

I did end up getting a new wheel :) In fact, I accidentally decided to buy two. Don't ask because..  because.. Anyway! I got a second hand Heavenly Handspinning Bellus and it came with 12 HUGE bobbins!

 See? It's so lovely.
And it's sooo fast! I was able to finally finish 3 skeins in less than a week. This is up from maybe one skein every couple weeks. Don't get me wrong, I love my Traddy, but this little number is amazingly awesome. Don't let the bicycle rim wheel part fool you. This thing is efficient. I guess I only have one complaint though. I can't figure out how to fill the bobbin evenly. The flyer arms don't "reach" all the way to the other end of the bobbin, but maybe I'm doing it wrong, I dunno.
Now to the yarns :)

 

This is a lovely 2 ply yarn made from Merino. It was dyed by Tivoli Creations. From 3.22 oz of fiber, I got about 116 yards, it's about worsted weight.

 

This is a super squishy Merino/Mohair/Silk Noil Bulky weight, slightly thick and thin. This batt is from The Rabbit Wren (They're actually going by a different name now and have moved, but I can't recall it.) It weights 3.32 oz, about 104 yards.

 I was able to get this one done as well. Same as the yellow yarn: Merino fiber, dyed by Tivoli Creations, 2 ply about worsted weight. About 3.64 oz and 120 yards.

I am working on a couple more, including me respinning my Retro Girl colorway yarn from Greenwood Fiber works. Going to see how that works out :P And after that, I will setting twist (I've actually been saying that, but I really want to get them done all at once.) and revealing prices on my FB page. 

Figuring out how to price is probably the hardest thing many crafters have to think about. I would hate to undercut other artists, but I would like for those who want to buy handspun yarn to pay a reasonable price. I think I have it down and will hopefully be able to offer different fibers, maybe even dyed by myself, which is now my current goal :)
