First 3-ply skein from the Ashford |

First skein in NZ
Finished the first skein last night - using the multi-coloured singles I have been working on over the last three nights after work. The plying went very smoothly; the Ashford Traditional is a great wheel and it took no time at all to fill a bobbin - which are slightly smaller than the ones on the Rappard upright in the US. I haven't yet worked out the yardage and weight but will do soon.
There is enough fiber for at least one more skein if not two - plenty of more work. This should work quite well as a contrast stripe with some plain Clun Forest white in a scarf.
