Last week I had a bit of fun with the blending hackle and I have finally finished spinning it. Its pretty, not as pretty and sparkly as I'd hoped for but there is colour in there amongst all that dark slate grey-blue.
The final fibre content is 65% Jacob Wool, 19% Merino Wool, 10% Corriedale Wool, 3.5% Other Fibres, 1.5% Silk, 1% Trilobal Nylon. Its a Double Knit weight and there is 161g/371m of it and its lovely, not overly soft like Merino but its not really scratchy either. I've not yet decided what to make with this but it won't take me long to decide.
