Ever since meeting Beth at the CT S&W we’ve been chatting back and forth a bit via our blogs about spinning. In one of those conversations we were discussing chain/Navajo plying and she mentioned wanting to make the One row handspun scarf written up by our clever Stephanie. I suddenly remembered a Grafton rainbow batt lurking in the fiber stash that I’d bought after seeing Grace’s luck with a similar batt. Yesterday I pulled the batt out from the bottom of the tub, gently unrolled it and began to spin. Thanks Beth for reminding me I had that!

The Grafton Fiber batt is perfect for that scarf, I think. Have fun doing this!

This is beautiful (and one of the reasons why I want to learn to spin)!

I plan to spin my Grafton Batt that way too! But I think maybe I’ll knit a Chevron scarf from it, I just can’t decide.

oh WOW! You’re really going to do it!
I’m going to spin some plain, boring singles to practice the technique first, but then I will know just what to do with my one carefully hoarded, treasured Grafton batt.

Beautiful batt! It’s going to make a really great scarf. Glad you’re feeling better!
