Not possible



Finally the 4 oz of gorgeous Bonker's Merino/Tencel in Burnt Amber is finished! I picked this up at Convergence almost a year ago from the Yarn Barn of Kansas booth.



The finished yarn is 582 yards.

Let me repeat that. I managed (finally) to crank out more than 100-300 yards worth of a two ply yarn. A first for me. I believe this is the thinest I've ever spun on purpose and consistently. The WPIs vary between 16-19, with the majority of the yarn coming in at 16-17 WPI.



I'm so proud I'm debating making socks... maybe. Or a small shawl. The colors remind me of one of the Fleece Artist Sea Silk colorways. I may end up purchasing the Sea Silk and combining the two and make a larger project.

There are just too many possibilities!!
