Cinnamon, Crimson, and Wine

What started out as this...
Fiber Optic Pencil Roving
a wheel welcoming gift from a friend...

Fiber Optic Pencil Roving
"This OOAK colorway has cinnamon, crimson, and wine with flashes of spiced pumpkin and gold" as described by the Etsy listing.

Went to this...

Singles spinning
I almost fit the whole 3.8 oz. onto one bobbin.

Whew, they were highly energized singles. I whipped them into shape a bit when I fulled them...

But as you can see, still a bit of energy still there.

It's ok, I love the colors...all of them.
Cinnamon, Crimson & Wine

Sorry that you see my ugly twine in the pictures...

The pencil roving looks really different from the bit of fiber I see at my LYS. Gorgeous colors in this one! What are you going to make with it?

Oh wow! The fiber wasn't doing it for me, but the spun-up yarn TOTALLY is! It's gorgeous, love the colors!
