Pam is my "knitting over lunch" buddy on Tuesdays. She has heard me talk about some purple and blue handspun recently, but wants to see the evidence.
Pam, hon, this post is for you.
The roving is from Crown (crack) Mountain Farms. (Click the link to view their fall sale going on right now!)
It's 100% superwash merino in colorways "In the Skies" and "Layla". When you buy this roving it comes in 8.5 ounce bumps per colorway.
To the right is a photo of pre-spun "In The Skies" with Toby. Here he's showing his best, "Can we just go for a walk?" face.
Finally, a photo of the finished yarn. It's all approximately heavy fingering weight. The blue skein has 618 yards. I haven't checked to see how much purple there is.

Oh, my gracious. That yarn shot is almost enough to convince me to try spinning. It is incredibly beautiful.
Great to see you tonight!
