TT II

During a brief lull in the spinning last night (doing catch up CF for the RSotBR project), I had another go at the Tennessee Tweed yarn - spinning three very thin singles and then plying it back on itself to get the 3 ply I will be using.  This time I did incorporate a tiny bit of colour - in this case yellow.

The resultant 3-ply works out to around 28 wraps per inch and is VERY strong, which would be a characteristic of the Lincoln long staple.
