Fiber Photo 365, day 4

Surprisingly, the silk-baby camel fiber, which was so painful to shred through, and for which I admit I didn't have especially high hopes (which was why I was willing to sacrifice it for practice with Navajo plying), actually came out great. The Navajo plying was perfect for smoothing out and blending the color transitions, and it's now a slightly varied thickness, firm, worsted-weight yarn with a lot of softness and sheen. Go figure!
