This is Blue Faced Leicester Top
5.1 oz of a colorway called DELPHINIUM

I took out most of the yellow after it was spun, not because I didn't like it but because I wanted to 2-ply it and the yellow washed out the other colors a bit more than I liked. I only had 5.1 oz, so I lost a little by removing the yellow instead of one third by chaining. I ended up with just 260 yards, but it's lovely.
Here are two other Dicentra fibers I've been working with,both of them chained singles.
LOVE HER FIBER!

Beautiful spinning.
We missed you at the Guild party last night. We had a big crowd and tons of gifties. Happy holidays!
Yummy! Those colors would go well with my Abalone! Maybe I should give you my sweater when it is done! NOT! Can you bring it to class tonight so I can see it?
gorgeous! taking out the yellow was a good call - it turned out really nice!
omg,that delphinium is STUNNING!!!
So many beautiful colors! Thanks for the great eye candy.
Beautiful yarns!
Gorgeous colors and amazing spinning.
I bought several batches of Dicentra's roving at Black Sheep in June and forgot about it until I ran across your page. Shame on me for neglecting that wonderful stuff. After my current spinning project I'll get right to it! :o) Beautiful yarns you have.
thanks
