Became these (one finished pre-move, one finished a few weeks ago)
Then became this....
To this....
And is now these!!!
Don't mind me...I'm in love with them...can you tell?
Two if By Hand
Superwash Merino
La Di Da (brown/burgundy/gold) 2 oz.
Was Only Joking (Blues/reddish) 2 oz.
N-Ply 193 yds total (105 & 88 yds)
Sport/DK weight
3rd TdF finished spin
I split each braid in half lengthwise first, then split them each 4 total times (8 strips total of each colorway). Then I spun them alternately one of LDD, then one of WOJ.
I have to admit, I didn't want to spin it this way...was going to spin them separately and figure something out.
So....glad....I went out of my comfort zone/box and just did it. I so love the colors!! It's also my most total yardage of n-ply :)
I spun the bobbins on my Traveller and plied them on my new Lendrum...ahh...the wheel I should have bought first. I learned on one and have always wanted one...after the last few months and my birthday...I'm a happy spinner!
Can you tell ;)

... love is in the air ...
Now we just need to see it knit up!
That is some beautiful yarn! I can see why you love it! Congrats on the new wheel too!
I can see why you love it, it's gorgeous!
So lovely! The colors are stunning mixed together like that.
What will the skeins become - or are they "to have and to hold" for the moment, so you can admire them a bit longer?
I wonu'd have expected it to spin up that way at all - but it is so pretty!
Gorgeous!
