new project

I started a new project yesterday with my natural dyed roving.
since all the colors really go so good together i decided to card them all together in a repeating stripe pattern. i rolled the batts into tight rolags

Then i hand pulled them into pencil roving. boy, i tell you that takes almost as long as the spinning itself, but it makes the spinning so much easier and the yarn so much more even.


To be continued.....

Next day...

i spun about 3/4 of the roving into a single

Will finish and ply today,stay tuned...

...and here it is:





Very nice muted pastel colors.I will hurry to my etsy shop and list it.......
