Roving


I dyed most of my BFL (Blue-Faced Leicester) Roving yesterday. With the hurricane weather down south, the temps have dropped quite a bit here; and its taking longer to dry. Normally they would be already. This morning they were still damp. They turned out really nice. Although steaming makes it look squished. Kettle dyed looks like there is more there (blues/violet), but both have exactly the same amount of fiber. 4.25 ounces. I have 3-4 oz left to dye of BFL.
Then I can get started on the Merino. I can't wait. I bought 6lbs. to play with.
