Its luscious fuchsia pink and turquoise blue...but once plyed the colours seem to be a lot darker.
Am still on a very big learning curve re the actual spinning itself. Seem to go along at a nice consistency of thickness and then goes stupidly thin and sometimes stays too thin but have managed to spin this to 11/13 tpi's.
Does anybody else get blogging stress....I see what all gorgeous knits others have managed to knit etc and want to do this pattern/that pattern/use this yarn...buy that fibre sometimes its all toooooo much.
But then the beauty of blogs and of course "forums" is the inspiration it gives you.
I sometimes wonder if I would do so much knitting if I didn't have the camaraderie of other like minded people....and it is lovely to be able to show what one has knitted etc....there is one blog I think Dances with Wolves....and at the moment Lene is doing a beautiful fairisle jumper called Henry...her work is wonderment. I will have a go one day....but for now my knitting time is being used.......laters all x

Great looking yarn but I know what you mean. I find it harder now to spin for a heavier weight but lace weight no problem. I was told this would happen after spinning for a while by members of the guild and there I was yearning to spin as fine as them .
I agree re blogs and I think Lene does some amazing things . I do think thought that at times I personally find I am spending too mucb time blogging than knitting but then as you say that is where we get the push to do more LOL
