154 yards of n-ply.

I decided I would have a go at navajo plying with this once it was a single.
I had already done two lots of 2 ply with similar colourways so decided to be brave. I had watched a video on you tube, if I can find the link I will post it here tomorrow.


This is it all plyed and wound into a centre pull ball ready to go on the niddy noddy.




Here it is looking all nice and straight on the niddy noddy.



This is what it did as soon as I removed the tension. As you can see it has quite abit too much energy there. Thankfully once it had had a soak and a good thwack it now hangs straight.



Once it is dry I will take a photo of the skein and work out wpi.
I am pleased with my first attempt, it's not as hard as I thought it would be and my first yarn is knittable, always a bonus.
