I finished the 2nd half of Sample 80, Silk Caps. I still have consistency issues. Singles were 25 to 30 wpi. Finished yarn was a 2 ply, light fingering to laceweight, 12 to 16 wpi yarn of about 32 yards to 0.6 ounces. It was interesting, but I'll probably never spin silk from a cap again.

DAY 12 (July 16th) of Tour de Fleece - I knit the swatches and finished the cards for the Suri Alpaca and for the Silk Caps for my breed and fiber study.
