Colors of Ukraine; Roving to Yarn

 Have I mentioned how much fun it is to spin variegated roving!  The yellow/blue and white blended beautifully and while there was no green on the roving, they have given the impression of greens when plied.
 Just look at this yarn!  280 yards of sock weight Merino/silk blend.  It was such a pleasure to spin this.
The cats have suspiciously eyed this all day and finally this evening they decided it wasn't going to get them and they conquered it!  (Bill has been working on the ceiling fan for this room!)
