Christy's challenge...

While browsing on Ravelry I found this challenge.

I received about 100 grams of beautiful Cotswold locks.

Already washed and ready to card.  I decided to card instead of combing because most of the locks were a little too short and It would have wasted too much and I would have ended up with a very skinny skein.

I turned it into a huge batt.

Started spinning away...

and plied...

Then it went for a colorful bath...

Here is the resulting skein for the contest entry.

I really love how it turned out beautiful and lustrous.

Now I wonder how long I'm going to be able to wait before I start knitting this yarn...it's just so tempting.
