For Part 3 - I chose a 2-color gradient of Black and Yellow, made from unknown wool.
I am planning a 2-ply yarn and want the colors to line up. So I organized the Rolags similarly to part 2. These are more consistent Rolags than in Part 1 and 2, so I'm hopeful the resulting yarn will be better... only spinning and plying will tell. ;-)
Of course, there is an odd number of Rolags (7), which means the colors are not mirrored from end to end.... The single starts with Black and ends with Yellow. sigh.
So, I have accepted the fact that this yarn will be mostly Barber Poled.
One of the good things about working with colors and fibers that are provided, rather than selected, is that it means I have to work outside of my preference. This often leads to good, or at least interesting outcomes.
1 1/8 oz (30g), 56 yards of 2-ply.
I don't imagine that I would have ever made this yarn on purpose. lol.
Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
