Upon repeated request I have added a new fibre blend to my range of fibres, a 70/30 extra soft Merino/Nylon roving, superwash and therefore perfect for handspinning long lasting yarns that can be machine washed (cool woolwash). The blend will make fantastic knitwear and strong socks, and it also dyes like a dream. I am currently spinning one of the handpainted lots I finished a few days ago, and the wool spins ever so easily. Two lots have found their way into my Etsy store at www.alltheprettyfibers.etsy.com . Here are some pictures:

Yep, the colours are indeed veeeery vibrant ;o) I am hoping to finish the merino/nylon yarn very soon so I can display a photo of it on my blog. But for now I have to move on with one of my custom orders...deadline's beginning of march, and I still need to finish 6 fingering weight skeins, which are very time consuming. Nevertheless the merino/nylon yarn will be finished within the next few days...I so want to see its colourway!!!!!!! ;oD
