Spinning - lilac/white BFL


maybe you remember the wool i dyed a few weeks back ?
if not : Dyed wool to spin and knit –D
it was 100 gram of the dyed purple – quite a bit to dark for what i wanted, and so … i need more wool
so i ordered 200 grams more of the soft BFL (a sheep in case you wonder :D )
and then i blended the dyed purple with the white on my blending board, and dizzed it off in a nice top
