And...Beautiful skeins of yarn! I love the colors!<br /><br />And I'm sorry about the felted locks. Still it is interesting to see that your personality can't just throw them away. :)Benitahttp://www.basicallybenita.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30398829.post-31221912013020424132010-09-17T07:13:59.522-07:002010-09-17T07:13:59.522-07:00I *love* to spin from flicked locks. How are you ...I *love* to spin from flicked locks. How are you washing them? I have used my roaster to dye locks before spinning them, and also to just wash them, and I have never had them felt. I just pack them into mesh lingerie washing bags, push them down into the soapy water, and let them cook. When I rinse them, I fill my wash basin with hot water, and just push the bags down into it with a potato masher. I handle them as little as possible, and I've never had a problem with felting. <br /><br />BrendaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30398829.post-88256263975491214082010-09-17T07:07:25.752-07:002010-09-17T07:07:25.752-07:00Beautiful dyed colours.

I find myself saying that. Like buying a loom that is not put together....said I would never do it.....did it twice this year, both times with disastrous results....I am never doing that again.Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02528439226293446420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30398829.post-64661226688046242492010-09-17T02:56:37.547-07:002010-09-17T02:56:37.547-07:00The skeins look wonderful!

People must love those bags at the craft fair. And talking with people about one of the things you like to do most is so much fun. When I am at a craft fair (it's been while though) there were always one ore two men who told me they learned spinning during the war when they were in hiding. People tell wonderful stories at such events.<br />Have a nice weekend.Marion B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15587172713661489822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30398829.post-17773321815984594322010-09-16T21:01:49.443-07:002010-09-16T21:01:49.443-07:00Everyone will definitely love your stuff!
