Roving in Hand


I’m delighted to have my paws on 3+ pounds of Border Leicester/Romney cross roving from the Formerly Unknown Sheep Farm.  This of course is not what it’s called, but I’m loath to reveal my location for security reasons.  Not that my identity hasn’t been blown on this blog, but let’s just pretend.

 



I chose a pound of “white” which is really a cream-colored cloud.  I plan to dye some of it, but also spin some undyed to go with the light grey/brown roving.  I have 2 pounds of this color and am planning to make a 3-season cape.  Design to follow.



 

I’m happy with my test skein, and have started the long-term project of spinning the rest. 


Neurocat also is grateful and approves of my choice.
