Here is the Northern Lights (Louet) Grape Jelly roving all wound up and ready to ply. (See Sirena waiting in the background?)
As you can tell, I have decided to make this a 3-ply yarn. I tried to make the weights of each ball as even as possible by combining some earlier-spun singles that are slightly thicker with the later-spun singles that are thinner. Still, the top ball is 3 grams lighter that the others. We'll see how that works out when I ply them! I'm not going to try and ply this until the weekend when I have time to give it my undivided attention.
And while there is no picture, I unraveled my Grasshopper socks back to the toe increases. I still haven't decided which sock pattern I'm going to use, but at least I'm ready to go when I finally pick one.
Decisions, decisions!
