I wound it on my Christmas niddy-noddy and have to say, I may not ever use my itty-bitty-teeny-tiny-niddy-noddy ever again. ;-)
I just love this yarn... the color, the lustor, the softness are all fantastic. Of course there are areas that are over-spun and the gauge is a little bit wonky, but I do love it. :-)
It's 2.875 ounces, 104 yards at about 18 wpi of liquid silver. I have a (currently top secret) plan for this yarn which includes a lot of other yarn to make.
Details will come later because this project has been bumped for a quasi-commission piece. :-) But I will give you a sneak peak of the lovely-ness to be paired with it... 100% Black Huacaya Alpaca from Wonder Why Alpaca Farm.
In the meantime, please head over to the Wonder Why Gal's blog and see the wonderful projects others have shared for Fiber Arts Friday.

Mmmm lovely luster
OH so pretty. Just want to touch it!
The cashmere/silk is gorgeous! I can't wait to see what you do with it. I've yet to spin cashmere.
I hope you enjoy the black huacaya. I can't wait to see what you spin it in to.
Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
Gorgeous silvery yarn!
