Bountiful Grab Bag 3

Date: 2005-06-23
Fiber Source:
Bountiful 8 oz Grab Bag of Wool and Angelina Blends Purchased at the Estes Park Wool Market 2005
Weight: 1.3 oz
Length: ~45 yds
Ply: Singles
Set Method: Wet Set & Dried with Weight
WPI: ??
Gauge: ?? (light worsted/DK, perhaps even sport)

Notes: I was later informed by a friend that when she went back to the Bountiful booth at the Estes Park Wool Market on Sunday she was told by one of the employees that the fiber in the grab bags and the bags with dramatic discounts would not spin up perfectly even yarn. That said, I am relatively happy with this third hank. It is relatively even. Though even after setting the twist, the singles remain somewhat energized. I need to either work on treadling more smoothly at a slower speed or drafting faster (or perhaps a combination of both).
