From this:
- London-Wul Polwarth Top
- Blues and Greys
- 4 oz
to this:
- super soft, bouncy
- 3-ply fingering weight yarn
- approximately 380 yards
I very much enjoyed spinning up this fiber... even though there were a few felted bits in places. I chose to tear this fiber up into pieces since the colors were not distributed in any even pattern. I used my handy-dandy postal scale to weigh the torn up chunks and try and make 3 singles of similar length. In the end I decided to make 2 plies completely baby blue, and the third ply out of the darker shades of blue and grey. I tried to randomly disperse the colors in the darker 3rd ply. In the end, my weighing technique was pretty close. There was a little bit more of the dark single than the others, which I navajo 3-plied just to use it up (around 15 yards) You can see it in the centre of the skein, about 4 strands of yarn that appear to be all one color.
This skein is destined to become a pair of squishy wonderful socks for ME! I am thinking maybe something with cables in it? since the yarn is very basic in color...
Happy Yarn Monday!
