3rd TdF and Ravellenics WIP - Stormy Seas

This was started as a 2016 Tour de Fleece project.  At the end of Tour de Fleece, two of the singles had been spun with 16:1 ratio.  Which made the project eligible for the Work In Progress Event of the Ravellenic Games on Revelry. 

I picked the name Stormy Seas because the roving reminded me of the colors of the Pacific when there is a storm.  The name could probably be revised based on the final color.   

This was another mystery roving.  I knew it was Ashland Bay and after I started spinning I realized there was definitely silk in it.  My guess is the Mackenzie color way. I will never know for sure since there was no note or receipt in with the roving.

 I started off with the idea that it would be a three ply and that is what I did for the first two skeins.  Total of 393 yards for them.

 The next skein was a two ply for 190 yards.  And then because of overspin, I ended up doing a chain ply for 58 yards.

 To get, the nice balance on the yarn, the three ply and the two ply had to bed run back through.  There was still to much energy after the initial plying.

I have assigned a DK weight to the yarn based on appearance.  I will need to figure out what to knit with it at some point.
