Green Gables yarn

Here's the yarn, Green Gables Superwash Wool from Spunky Eclectic plied with BFL dyed by yours truly with Easter Egg dye (yellow, blue/green, with the melon pulled out for some other project).

And the original roving, just as a reminder.



Both singles were spun from the fold, although the superwash was easier. I like this yarn very much. I think it looks like the original roving even though it isn't, as there was more white in the roving than was apparent at first glance.

I still have an ounce and a half or so of the roving left to do something else with, but I think I will wait. Maybe ply it with the blue of June, who knows. It would be fun to do some blending of the colors one into the other perhaps.

What's been nice so far about this is I've been really motivated to spin. I've been knitting more lately but I do have to get on the stick about the L.A. County Fair project, which involves spinning six different colors (only two of which have been carded yet). You can see that project on my other blog, Progressive Purls, but watch out for the political content!

Anyone else ready to send pictures?
