Making of Designer Yarn


It was about time I got out my new Ashford Wild Carder and created some designer yarn. So with my coloured merino fleece, and black alpaca I went ahead and carded mixing the colours using the best I thought without getting "that muddy look" . I then went to my stash and found some angelina, ( short glitter fibres) and a cone of green glitter and some flourescent yellow wool.
Then to ply back with I used the green glitter yarn and yellow wool and every now and then took some angelina and added it in. The black alpaca gave it the WOW factor as well as the angelina.
