I had 2 small bobbins after spinning the fiber. I decided to make it a 2 ply.
I'm pretty happy with it. The first bobbin spun well and the 2nd bobbin I thought had spun well..well..um..found quite a few unspun little gobs....what do you call them? Heh, I'll call them slubs
The pictures aren't the best, I've since made a light box for those nights there is no daylight when I get home ;)
Some of this 2 ply is sooo nice, some of it..well it's ok, I am still learning.
She loved it and I'm sure will knit it into something good.

I forgot to take a picture before I spun it. Here is the Etsy link. I had a tiny bit leftover on a bobbin, it was this I practiced my navajo ply and spun the yarn you saw last week.

It looks good to me! I don't spin at all, so I'm not much of a judge of your technical skills, but it looks very "knittable" so therefore, it's a success! Pretty color too.
ooooh lucky friend!!!
Looks great. What a gorgeous colour.
Your spinning is something else! I'm going to have to meet up with you when you are next in Maine so you can teach me! Also- lightbox?? Will you share what you did? (Not that I've even attempted to photograph anything I've knit lately...)
Lovely yarn! Very nice work.
Beautiful! You are getting better and better!
Lucky friend you have!!
Love the color! And it looks so squooshy.
You're such a fast learner!
Look at you go Zonda! Just gorgeous!!!
Beautiful spinning job!
Beautiful yarn - don't you love it when you come to a "sweet spot" where everything went perfectly for awhile?
I"m still at the point where I really appreciate those sections!
