Spinning a Rainbow

This is part of a project that will be a gift to Emma's preschool at the end of term. I don't want to say too much but it is oh so pretty so far! The fibre is from a sample pack of commercially dyed merino, which I spun (with a little help from Emma) and chain plied on my brand new Schacht Ladybug. Emma has been learning about wool and where it comes from, about how it is spun, and she helped to decide on the colour order. We've been having a lot of fun with this! It was spun quickly so isn't the tidiest yarn ever, but that is how I wanted it for this project. More to come as soon as I make progress!
