spinning

This weeknd, I did some spinning for the "February Challenge" in the "Spindlers" group on Ravelry.

The theme was "Mardi Gras"

My inspiration was this:

And I decided I’d be using up various things I had lying around.

Here are all my singles:

(It turns out I didn’t have very much of the blue yarn around, so I was limited by that. I ended up dyeing the red (with red food colouring) so it would be brighter, and the yellow is really the beige with lots of yellow food colouring added in.

I did a cabled yarn, with three-ply cables - one for the pancakes and one for the toppings.

And here is my 3 meter end-product.

I ended up turning it into a bracelet.
