Stash Dash FO #8

My eight finished object for Stash Dash is a skein of yarn I've spun



This is a Blue Faced Leicester/nylon blend, that I tossed in the dye-pot to soak up the rest of the dye after some yarn was done. I spun it real thin, because I knew I wanted to chain-/3-ply it. The benefit of a chainply is that I can fill just the one bobbin to the brim, and then make the finished yarn from that bobbin. It leaves my other bobbins free for other projects, because I have only got the 4 bobbins that came with the wheel.



I ended up with 351 meters from 110 grams, so I managed to spin it fairly thin. I'm now a bit tired of this, because it's taken about 6 hours to ply. I do think I'll return to it within Stash Dash though, and they will become a pretty pair of socks.



So far I've got 2363,4 meters/5000 meters for Stash Dash.
