Kettle dyed roving

I just couldn't stop spinning.... except when I went to eat.


After the core spinning with the Bricolage Batt this morning I just couldn't stop, I wanted to see what this amazing Kettle Dyed yarn would do.  My friend Carla hand dyes and spins, so of course I had to buy some of the lovely fibers from cjkoho designs.  It was so exciting to see the colors of this kettle dyed pack, it is fascinating to me that different fibers can be put into the same dye batch and how differently they respond.
I'm not sure if I want to use this for doll hair or a scarf.... I still have more to spin so maybe a both  =)

    Thanks!
    I still have a bit of over spin, I think I just get excited and spin to fast =)
    It is tempting to make a scarf out of this yarn, but doll hair would be lovely.
