Here are the yarns individually inside I'll put the description below the picture.
This I named "Coral Reef" there is approx 125 yards of 3 ply merino wool. I really like the colors in this yarn, and Navajo plying is another thing I have become to really like.
This yarn is from the same dye pot as coral reef. Dyeing is a learning process and ohhhh I'm just learning. The specs of this yarn is a bulky yarn, my mind doesn't want me to remember the yardage of this yarn and I know I didn't write it down. This is also 3 ply yarn.
I don't really know what to think of this yarn, it seemed to have a mind of its own when spinning. I was kind of disappointed with the result at first but now it seems to be growing on me. I have named it "Sailors Delight" there is 183 yards of 2 ply and in merino wool. Colors are light blues with hints of pinks and purples.
This little lovely has no name yet, I believe there is 30-something yards, 1 ounce of yarn. I have 3 more ounces of the same roving. Amanda Cathleen purchased the roving for me somewhere....She'll remember and I'll correct this later. This is also spun up in 3 ply (navajo ply) seeing a trend here with the 3 ply? I'm hooked!
Here is my beloved alpaca that is currently on the wheel. I intend on keeping this yarn and knitting something up for myself. This is planned to be spun up and in (you guessed it) 3 ply.
I blogged a WHILE back about some gloves I was knitting, they have been done and doing an awesome job at keeping my hands warm and toasty. Here are a few pix of them. The pattern was taken from a couple patterns and morphed into my own that I wrote down and I'm sure I'm the only one that can understand it. It was just one pattern to make a universal glove so they both fit either hand, I'm not sure if all glove patterns are like that but thats how mine turned out.
Now there is something that I like to mess around with that. Polymer clay. Nuff said so here's what was created. Yes I named it cause that's the kind of girl I am.... "Rusty limes"
I have worked hard on this post. I must go and get ready for work all. Have a great day!

I love the picture of you holding the mug with your gloves on! Fab gloves!
I can tell you that I bought that fiber at the PA fiber festival from the lady with all the bunnies. Not exactly helpful I know!
Beautiful bracelet, very cool color combo.
Love your spinning! Those gloves are awesome! I've seen them in person. You did a really great job on them.
That's a very nice looking bracelet.
