Ich spinne gerade ein Kilo (mein zweites ganzes) braune Irische oder so und es ist sooo langweilig, zumal ich sie zum Schluss eh färben muss, weil ich naturbraun nicht trage... <BR/><BR/>Von daher: Super Idee. Und das dunkelrot-changierende ist sehr schön geworden! Man könnte es ja dann mit etwas schwarz oder so verzwirnen, falls es dir doch zu knallig ist... <BR/><BR/>:)<BR/><BR/>Ich brauch wohl doch bunte Wolle!<BR/><BR/>Liebe Grüße aus Leipzig.mangomilchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08943396356239389174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25604704.post-35440836815202683562007-06-23T17:00:00.000-04:002007-06-23T17:00:00.000-04:00Your dyed rovings look so professional!

I really like the red/black one and that is pretty easy figure out what it will look like. The other one....with the white patches...those white patches always throw me for a loop. A roving like that consistently surprises me in a good way. I bet it will be lots of fun to spin and you will be pleasantly surprised.Tracy Purtscherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14330246026472319794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25604704.post-18427354908602964102007-06-21T12:48:00.000-04:002007-06-21T12:48:00.000-04:00The cardigan is beautiful.
