The results of this

8 oz superwash merino

“Locomotive Breath”

The finished results of this dye-experiment roving! I’m really pleased with it! 

My first go at chain/navajo plying!  I really really like the results.  This very well be my default playing method from now on.  

I plied the single I spun using this roving. 

This is the spun result of this roving which I dyed a few weeks ago.  

I bought this lovely black walnut bottom/top whirl spindle at the Farmer’s Market last weekend!  It’s a lot lighter than my other and is a pleasure to spin on! 

I thought it would be interesting to look at a step-by-step process of creating this yarn. 

The results of another dye experiment!  I adore this yarn.  These pictures do no to it justice.  

102 yards, 100% wool.  I call it “orange sherbet”
