[SPAKAL] Part 2 - Plying

Now the plying is done done done! A word comes to my mind: Glorious. It's a perfect Morning Glory color. So bright. So cheerful. So purple.

I skeined it and before washing, I had to take a picture. So please excuse all the kinks and pigtails. gah, still can't get rid of them completely, although there are less. I'm still not complaining though; this is an immense improvement since the first spin to knit project. The twists are tighter, maybe too tight but it's still better than loose twists. And the combed top that was dyed in different colors! It was more fun spinning this than other "natural" colored fiber.

With the niddy noddy, I measured about 325 yards and it's 120 gram skein. So I'm guessing this to be a sportweight yarn. It's only 2-ply though. I'm not sure if I want to knit socks still or go for something less risky, like shawls. I think I want knit socks, it's been a while since I knit a pair, but the yarn isn't even enough. You can tell that while it's mostly sportweight, there's definitely thinner spots and thicker parts, even after plying.

Ah, decisions.. decisions.....
