Merino Sparkle
This
hand dyed merino has just the slightest hint of rayon blended so whether you felt it or spin it, your end product will catch ever so slight a glimmer of light (which you can't tell from the photo unless you click on it to enlarge)! The first photo below shows a swatch knit from a skein spun keeping the like colors together as it was plied (check back for a sample....much tweedier.....showing how it looks if you just spin and ply without keeping the colors separate). The second photo shows 2 skeins....the left one spun keeping the colors separate as it was plied (also shown in photo 1) and the right hand skein is plied without keeping the colors separate (check back to see that swatch knit up).
The point is......as a spinner, you can control how the colors in a handpainted roving are worked!!
Samples shown below are of colorway "cathedral".
