Light blue fleece

I dyed this fleece - from one of my Easycare cross sheep - a light blue some time ago.
I'm in the process of flick-carding the locks and spinning this on the Ashford Trad. while I'm drum-carding the shorter fibers and spinning these on my little drop spindle.

The Wheel singles will be piled together and the first little hank of drop-spindled singles has been plied using the Andean plier. It's time to start another spindle-full.

So, some pics of the process:












First little woolie hank, awaiting more.
