Spring Lilacs makes Etsy Treasury
I still get excited when one of my Cordova Studios items make an Etsy Treasury, and it's backflips when it's a main treasury. Please excuse the shameless self-promotion. I love this roving and can't wait to spin this colorway.
The super-wash Blue-faced Leicester spins up like a dream.
Cathie bought one of these last week. She spins beautiful fine yarn. Hope she finishes it soon.
Mardi Gras3 become a totally playful yarn when it was all spun and plied. I will post the yarn in the shop later this week.

Bright Roving Dyeing Follow-up
Remember Pinwheel in the dye pot?
This bright, happy super-wash Blue-faced Leicester roving resulted from my experimental yarn placement.
This was the first time I had tried the yarn this way. I will definitely do it again.
Here is Mardi Gras3. I have dyed this colorway again, so I could have more to ply with the single-ply yarn I have already spun. I listed one in the shop also.
"Spring Lilacs" has a more sophisticated look with the lilac, soft gold, and bluebird bird combination
"Fun with Fuchsia" is a sassy roving with aqua, lime green, and yellow combined with fuchsia. I find the fuchsia mellows out as the yarn is spun.I am getting these listed at Cordova Studios as quickly as I can.
