For my last project for the Tour, I started two 4-oz braids of a mixed BFL in the "Quest" colorway from FatCatKnits. While I did get the singles spun up during the tour, I didn't have time to get them plied, but I finished that task up this week.
I spun this up semi-woolen to keep it fairly light and fluffy, and to match the dark brown/black natural-colored roving I had spun up previously.
Technical Specs:
Roving: 8 oz of mixed BFL from FatCatKnits, in the "Quest" colorway.
Ply: 2-ply.
Weight: Worsted.
Yardage: 364 yards/7.8 oz.
I love the forest-y colors in this! I think it will work great with the dark brown I spun up, but I don't have enough yardage from those total 13 oz to quite get a sweater for myself knit.
So... I'm thinking I will add a few other solid colors in stripes or as colorwork against the dark brown in a yoke. Maybe some herb greens and a golden brown? Still pondering my options on this, but I'm excited to have this much of a potential sweater already spun up and ready to go!
