(Genuinely don’t remember if I already posted this here or not)

So I spun up this lovely rainbow merino/silk floof a while ago. And now it’s June!

I feel like I should make something with it for pride month. But I literally have no ideas. It’s DK weight and about 260m. The whole thing is one big rainbow gradient so I would need to use the whole skein to have the full effect. Suggestions much appreciated!

Ended up unraveling my sweater because it was too small. Pain.

Anyone else ever has a knit that looks too small when on the needles? I'm nervous lol

It’s been something like a year or more since I’ve really done any serious spinning—at least long enough for me to spend a lot of the plying process I was absolutely doing it wrong.

(I like fine yarn tightly plied, ideally! So there’s often enough overply to notice, and without spinning much, it’s hard to quickly know if it’s your normal, desirable overply that’s going to result in getting close to something springy and almost beadlike, or if it’s really bad and you’re actually spinning wire. [I did stop to check the twist a few times at first.] Seeing the initial hard, flat quality of the yarn was also not a good time! But it fluffed up into a pretty good approximation of my ideal handspun merino after a quick wash and dry.)
