Spinning up Pink and Munstead Wood

As soon as last months club fibre landed in my porch I knew exactly what to do with it.  Spin it and combine it with Decembers Pink to tone down that bright pink.

I spun them both separately from the end, worsted style, and then plied them together to make two large skeins of barber-poled yarn and, because there was a small amount of Pink left over, I made a small skein of that plied back on itself.

Munstead Wood is 62.5% Merino, 25% Linen, 12.5% Bamboo and Pink is 75% Merino Wool, 25% Peduncle Silk.  I've worked out the final percentages of the main two skeins, which are a little less than a straight 50/50 calculation due to the amount of Pink that wasn't used in the main two skeins but its approximately 68.25% Merino, 13.5% Linen, 11.5% Peduncle Silk, 6.75% Bamboo.

All of it is spun sport weight with the two main skeins being 95g/332m and 85g/280 and then the small skein of pink is 75% Merino, 25% Peduncle Silk and weighs 15g/51m.
