Could I post everyday of Tour de Fleece? I mean, I've never been regular, but I'm even less so now.
My current spinning project is Greens. The wool is either BFL, or likely BFL, and some silk. There was one bump of BFL/Silk in greens, some more of various yellows and greens and blues, one of undyed mixed browns, some unlabeled stash fiber dyed blues and greens, some BFL I dyed greens and blues, and some chartreuse silk noil. I carded it all together, and spun on Urd. (Actually, first I picked out a pattern, carded a couple of batts first, sampled and then decided at that grist I needed more fiber to make the required yardage). I saved approx 4 ounces back to spin matching sock yarn if I had enough for the desired sweater (Water and Stone). The singles are done. I think I put a bit to much twist in them. I've started plying, and there's a lot in there, with a some bits of coiled that slip in. I think it to should make the cables pop, to balance out that the heathering is going to hide them.
