My New Favorite Fiber

Topic: Lacemaking, Spinning and Knitting|

Cormo - it’s everything I want in a wool fiber and more - soft, springy, very easy to spin - I love it! I’ve been spinning it laceweight - it’s very strong. I andean plied a small sample so that I could try out a lace motif (using #0 dpns). I’m planning to knit a lace scarf, but I would like to to make some bobbin lace as well. I’m amazed at how fine I can spin the singles, so I think even plied this fiber would make some nice thread for bobbin lace.
