The last couple days I’ve been working with some really fun, bright fibers. Had to share a few pictures. This 4 ounce handspun yarn skeins are each approximately 100 yards, $28 each or a set of 6 colors for $150. (includes shipping in the United States). They are made from Corriedale Top Wool. Each skein is a #5 Heavy Worsted Weight with a WPI between 6-9. If interested, send an email to info@TheTwistedPurl.com for more details. Thanks!
I have been on a Pompom kick lately. But between me and you, pompoms on hats and things is just not my thing. So, what’s a girl to do? I have close to 100 pompoms. I’m helping with an upcoming Yarn Bombing project and some of them will be used there, but until then…I had to share some of them with you. For the love of Pompoms and all:
These Pompom streamers are easy to make! Just make a pompom and use about a foot long string to tie off the middle of the pompom. Tie each pompom together using a bow. Tada!!! You have your very own pompom streamers. Easy peasy!
Here are a few of my other favorite pompoms from the last few days:
