Amazon & Merlot

These are the names I have given to colorways 4 & 3 respectively.  I like how both of these spun up.  Now it's time for the swatching.

And speaking of spinning (& Amazon actually). . . this arrived today:

The Alden Amos Big Book of Handspinning -- and it is big!  It's like a textbook.  I can't wait to take a look inside.  I've heard it pretty much covers *everything* you would ever need to know about spinning.  I've also heard that his style is a bit off-putting to some.  We shall see.

Also in the box:

Yeah!!!!

I love the Alden Amos book! He's technical and informative but down-to-earth and opinionated, which I like. The writing is light, fun and easy to read, kind of like EZ. And I do appreciate the schematics at the end of the book -- if I ever get some time, I'm going to try making my own set of hackles!

BTW, your spinning is lovely!

Wow. That shade of green and that shade of purple are my favorite colors. Gorgeous!

Amazon is lovely. (Merlot is quite nice, too, but a bit purpley for me.) Beautiful job!
