For the past couple of weeks I’ve been slowly spinning this merino/tencel top which has proven to be quite a challenge compared to the pure merino top that I just finished. The fibers slip so easily that it’s difficult to maintain a consistently sized single. So far I’ve only been able to fill up one bobbin, so I haven’t had a chance ply a large quantity to see how the yarn will actually look. I’m curious to see how it will look once it’s knitted.
Hi spun of this on my spindle and double plied it – it came out even an looks great!!

Yes you’re right, the fiber seems to even out once it’s plied and washed.
