What started out as this..
Looked like this after a little while...
Then turned into this...
Yes,it's the same braid...wild colors I tell you!
Then became the last two bobbins spun on my Traveller.
Together they became this...
Now enjoying their time together ;)
I love how the yellow and a few other colors got bits of the black color spun into it, makes it a bit more heathery.
I navajo plied it, which if you don't spin, makes a single ply into a 3 ply yarn. It does eat up the yardage, so unless you are an awesomely thin spinner (not me yet) you don't get a lot. I am getting better though.
Two if By Hand Organic Merino
Pope Mittens (name makes me giggle!)
4 oz.
n-ply, post soak is 166yds of light worsted. Lost about 9 yds.
Organic merino was lovely to spin, these most likely will be mittens...unless I score a bit more of the colorway...then who knows what'll show up!
ETA: I scored 2 more braids so you'll be seeing it again soon!
Onward to the next spin!
