The Cycling: Stage 3 is 230.8km of a flat route that starts in Plaisance and ends in Turin.
The Daily Challenge: Beneath Turin there are supposedly three alchemical caves, one of which may hide the elusive Philosopher's Stone. You can't visit these caves as their location is only ever known by three people at a time - and these people don't know each other so they can't share it! Turin is shrouded in a lot of magical myth and mystery; we fell down the rabbit hold and had to be forcibly dragged out! Our first non-spinning challenge of this tour! Share your favourite myth/legend - it could be something local to your area, lesser-known, or just something that you like!
Suggested Fibre: Myth, a lightly textured amber-coloured blend of 33.3% Merino, 33.3% Tweed and 33.3% Bamboo (the remaining 0.01% is a mystery)
What I did
Well, the fibre I chose to start spinning yesterday was picked to fit in with today's challenge and Rudolph is certainly both a myth and a legend. I plied the two singles that I spun yesterday of Rudolph's Nose from the 2021 Advent Calendar. The finished yarn is wonderfully soft and I have 101g/363m of sport weight yarn. It is 25% Shetland Wool, 25% Tussah Silk, 25% Bamboo, 25% Bio-Nylon.
