Spinning and Super Secret Projects

I finally finished the Merino/Cashmere roving this is my version of Persuasion, 388 yds, 17 wpi (sport wt.) from 6 oz, 3 plyed.  This is my first attempt at a 3 ply yarn, don't think I did too bad. 

Now I am searching for the best pattern for it.  One of these days I will have the pattern first and make the yarn to match.

My friend Keri and I have had a brainstorm AGAIN and have another great project we are starting, shocked aren't ya.  Yesterday we took 4oz of Superwash Merino roving each and dyed them beginning with one color at one end and then changing throughout.  We are planning on spinning and Navajo Plying them, the theory is that it will give us very long color repeats with subtle transitions for a thick striping effect when knit.  Keri's is on the right and mine is on the left.  Pretty huh?

There will be updates on our progress.

I am also happy to announce the Loopy Ewe had another sneak up last night and Glam Grrl made an appearance again and was well received.  Also you have to check out the new bag from 3am Enchantments, it is a very cute sheep fabric with the cutest little zipper pulls made by WeeOnes! 

Oh and the Super Secret Project is Super Secret and I can't tell you!!  Muhahahahahahaha
