The large lump of felted Tinkerbell fuzz has been spun into yarn. The staple was fairly short, but having spun Siberian Husky, I was comfortable spinning the fibre.The only difficulty was that it had a tendency to felt during handling, so I needed to work on small amounts at a time. The spun yarn was quite unexpected; feeling cool and silky to the touch.
There's not enough to ply on itself an have enough yarn for a project, so I thought I'd ply it with Tussah Silk. The silk has a natural creamy colour that should set off the grey of Tinkerbell's fuzz well.
