Next color experiment with my three colors of alpaca fiber is blending them all together with a little silk. (The silk makes it so strong I can’t break the singles by hand. I’m undecided how I feel about that.) I aimed for equal portions of each color, but I didn’t get out the scale, so I knew there would be variations in the rolags I produced from carding. (Honestly, there will be variation even if I weighed, but the subtle change in color can be quite pleasant.)

I think I like the subtlety of this yarn, but I want to make it up into something to be sure. Yarns can look very different in the ball or skein than they do in a finished piece!
