Carders!

I got my first carders a couple of weeks ago, and the possibilities for experimentation have been keeping me very busy. I'm using a purple merino, mixing some with mohair locks in navy, purple, pink and white, some with alpaca in blue or charcoal, and sprinkling some of all these mixtures with various sorts of angelina. I'm aiming for a 3-ply, to mix the colours up some more, and I've only got one single left to spin. The variation in fibres is keeping my fingers on their toes.
