The Cycling: Stage 15 is 198km of a mountain route that starts in Loudenvielle and ends in Plateau du Beille.
The Daily Challenge: As well as being a ski resort Pleateau du Beille has some interesting flora and fauna including varieties of moss, carnivorous plants and even eagles. Step away from the wool and grab a plant fibre or a fibre blended with plant fibres.
Suggested Fibre: Flax/Linen was our first thought for this blend, and then we remembered the gorgeous "Little Wren".
What I did
I didn't do any spinning today. Instead I have caught up with measuring all the yarns that have been soaked and dried since they were spun, to get their final finished measurements and thicknesses, and I have done all the costings for these as well to include the labour cost of all the hours of spinning along with the actual materials cost and my stock and materials database has been updated.
This photo is all four of the Llandovery Whiteface Hill blends together. The brown and yellow are double knit weight, the blue and purple are sport weight and there are two skeins of each colour
