Melonball
This yarn is the perfect example of something I had very low expectations about.
I wasn't at all pleased with the woolroving after dyeing it. I had decided to dye in different colors that I normally choose, like blue, turqouise and pink. While fluffing it after steaming it I immediately regret my trial to be different.
But it so fun how a roving transforms into somethings that you experience in a totally different way when it's spun.
As single i still wasn't very happy about it, but when plyed - fractal - I thought it looked really greate.
What was a boring roving turned in to a yarn that was sofisticated but happy in color. With it's fresh meloncolor I named it "Melonball" I think that it will turn into something beautiful when knitted!
100 grams BFl wool, handdyed, handspun into a 2 ply yarn of 350 meters.
Melonball the yarn
350 meters of handspun happiness!
It's now waiting for someone under the christmastree..
