If it isn’t already obvious, I really have a thing for rainbows, I always have. One of my favorite and often recurring colorways is anything rainbow colored, I haven’t gotten tired of it yet!
Today I dyed some bleached silk bits using food coloring, the results are not yet dry but this was the beginning process:

I had some merino roving in sold colors, I ran them through my drumcarder in a random pattern and then pulled the batts into roving:

It didn’t spin much, only 112 yards. This is the yarn before twist setting:

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Can’t wait to see how the died silk bits turn out. The merino roving after spinning is lovely.
