Over recent months I've been spinning a super soft merino batt for a future weaving project and I finally finished it on the weekend so I had to go stash diving for tonight's project. Ages ago I won a hand dyed BFL roving by The Sassy Spinner as part of our spinning groups raffle and decided to make a start on it tonight.
The colour way is Moorland and the base fibre is oatmeal BFL. The oatmeal base really makes the colours deep and heather like and it's a nice fibre to spin.
I want to keep the colours together as much as possible so I'm trying to spin it thinly and then I'll n-ply it to hopefully end up with a 4 ply or DL yarn. At the moment I have no final plans for the yarn, but who normally does at this stage?!?
