Spinning silk

Keep it simple, keep it brief. Vintage silk gifted to me, gifting it back. Three-ply light skein spun. The colour of Tillandsia.

Thee Lojan bobbins, two with singles of green variegated silk, the other draped with silk unspun.
Three Lojan bobbins. Two completed with singles of silk, the other waiting for the silk to be spun. B. Wanhill. March 2025.
Two bobbins of silk in the background. A Tillandsia sits on top of green variegated unspun silk and a sample of spun yarn.
The sample of yarn created immediately reminded me of the colours of Tillandsia. B. Wanhill. March 2025.
Three ply skein of variegated green silk lays on a wood floor. A Tillandsia lays on top of the skein.
Approximately 28 grams and 24 meter skein of 3-ply silk. Gifting it back with love. B. Wanhill. March 2025.
