I finished the spinning of this ‘new blend’ several months ago! Dyeing was the second step.
Purple and turquoise are favorite colours of mine. The red is to brighten it up ;-)!!
I will weave the poncho and these skeins are for the weft.
The warp, I will dye the same and while weaving the same colours will find each other or mix!
A bit like this shawl….
…now all three fibers are carded together: wool, silk and viscose. It feels good, it looks good.
In time I can show a nice yarn, I hope….
This blend is carded with Bleu du Maine, Alpaca, Mohair and Silk……..
The second time I carded small nests…… it feels gorgeous….
This 400 gr. will accompony me wherever I go, together with my Rose…..
At ‘the Dutch Annual Spinning Day’ I bought space dyed soybean tops.
At the start, spinning was a little slippery, but I managed after a while.
It was plyed with a silk thread.
