A 2 ply with this lovely merino blend I got. All my coworkers are asking me to make stuff now that I have proper spinning wheel. Anyone else here into spinning yarn?

While I'm on the subject, would anyone else be interested in a write up? I don't want the information to stay on Reddit. And while I'm VERY much not an expert, I can at least start posting resources for folk.

That sounds so cool! I just started getting into gardening but did not consider you could grow dyes. You better post pics whenever it happens

Oh trust me, I'll be spamming the instance with my pictures like a proud parent with a child. I was inspired by finding this website that documents the different dyes different eucalyptus trees can make. Gorgeous browns and greens galore. I absolutely want to post my adventures into spinning and yarn for each step.
