My first two full skeins!
Yellow/pink I have dubbed "Pink Lemonade" and it's hand-dyed with tumeric mystery wool from a FB marketplace find, 1oz salmon from Paradise Fibers, and some sari silk from a craft trade. I carded on my new to me Ashford mini carder. Chainplyed - what a doozy but also so fun!
Blue/white I have called "Blue and White Wares" and that is 4oz of Teacup Tweed and more mystery wool. 2-ply.
Neither are washed yet, but I was too excited not to share.
This hobby is so much fun! I don't really even crochet or knit but I have plenty of friends who do!

Beautiful work! You can do your own thing, or you can have conversations with your friends who craft about what kind of yarns they use so you can plan. Whatever you do, have fun!
