eighty-seventh, eighty-eighth skeins
These two skeins, my eighty-seventh and eighty-eighth, are yet more Blue Face Leicester wool. This time the wool is from Kimber Baldwin Designs (FiberOptic on Etsy), dyed in the colour sunflower. Four ounces total, 160 yards total, worsted weight yarn, singles spun to about 32 wpi. Plied into unevenly-sized skeins because my digital scale gave me inaccurate readings again.
The colour makes me laugh because it looks so much like the colour of an orange cat. I like cats very much; the only time I like the colour orange is when it is on a cat. Picked this wool to make a gift for a family member who favours autumn colours (and cats).
