Mojave Roving

This was started a couple of months ago.  It is Ashland Bay Merino roving which comes in fun colors.  I always have trouble anticipating how the colors are going to spin up.
Here is the roving which clearly shows the different colors that are blended.  I was expecting some pops of gold.  The single as shown below is far more tweedy than I thought it would be.

The singles are being done with a ratio of 6.5:1.  That is my smallest whorl.

I keep wondering if I would like to pick up the smaller whorl sometime.
