Nests of different colors: rust, lime green, royal blue, purple, bright green, and white (I decided to strip out most of the white - too much contrast)

I mean, it's dense yarn? It's Romney which is a longwool, and it has a heft to it when you hold the skein... but its diameter is definitely a lace weight.

My brain still hurts.

A *bleepin* sweater quantity of mostly hand dyed fiber braids for hand spinning. Blue, green, cream, rust, purple, beige, and magenta. This is going to be amazeballs.

I've been away from spinning for about 8 years, so I completely missed the #combospinning boat. And I gotta say, HOW DID I MISS THE COMBO SPINNING BOAT?

This is all Fiber of Yore, some as much at 15 years old.
GUESS WHAT I'M GOING TO DO WITH IT...

... that by plying from a center-wound ball, you actually add more twist.
That seems to work just fine for me.
Spin on!
