Tour de Fleece Day 7: Plying

It was ply, ply, ply all evening, until the pygora singles were all done up into a 2-ply laceweight:




Tomorrow I'll skein it, wash it, full it a little and thwack it to bring out the halo, and hang it out in the heat to dry.

That's 2 ounces -- I still have another 2 ounces I can spin later, then choose between the two skeins for the best to enter in the state fair. And that's why I didn't spin both into one single 4 ounce skein -- that, and the instructions for the fair call for 2 ounce samples.
