It's yarn!
I made yarn again! Here is the end result of some Cheviot fleece I washed, dyed and spun (see previous post). If I had used my hand cards, this would have been one pretty much consistent color, but instead I used my flicker brush to fluff out the fleece and spin it without further processing. I love the way the yarn ended up! And I loved my Sleeping Beauty Spindle.
Here is the hand-dyed Merino top that I bought from Kae/FaerieLady on the spindle. I just got this started at lunch today. I am so impressed with the depth of color and the way this is spinning up. I am making it a little chunkier than the stuff above, because I want to try a bulky knit project!

Oh you just had to put up that roving that I love so much :-)
The cheviot is very pretty. I don't know if I told you but I have a cheviot fleece coming my way very, very soon. I may have to consult you for fleece washing tips.
I just put up a knitted swatch of the roving that I got from the faerie lady... I like it a lot!
