This fiber blend is pretty soft.

It's 75% Blue-faced Leicester wool and 25% silk..

Hey, a plate of fiber! It's supposed to be good for you right?
Here is about 1/2 of one roving strip done. I split the 4oz roving in half, then halved those halves...

which leaves me with the 4 bumps you see on the plate ;) (wait! I can't add, you only see 3 bumps here, one is currently a bit busy ;) I didn't get a picture of the braid, that's ok, I like these better.
This colorway is from the All Spun Up Spin Along for April/May (shhh..it doesn't know I'm not spinning it on time ;) If you ever want to join the SAL's check out the group on Ravelry.
BFL/Silk in Ice Caves 4 oz
I plan it to be a thin 2 ply or a possible n-ply. We'll see how the singles go.

Beautiful roving, can't wait to see the yarn!
Looks great so far. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product!
I love the pretty colors! It's spun up so nicely!
those colors are totally reminding me of something cool,breezing, refreshing! Something I would like to be close to me on those warm, warmer, warmest days we are dealing with!!!!!!!!!!
