Yes, that’s the name I gave to the yarn that I am spinning now on Ravelry. It’s quite light and airy. I am pretty happy with the result. I just have to duplicate it for the other half of the fiber. Oy! There will be four more hours of plying. I must remember not to start the process too late in the evening.
Click on them to go to Flickr and see the photos in their original uploaded sizes. You can sort of see the sparks. But they don’t look anything like what you can see in real person. Full of colors and fires. Silver Hologram Angelina is quite amazing.

Thanks Marianne. I hope the second batch doesn’t turn out looking different. That would cause a problem in the knitting project.
Can we see your spinning soon?

great plying! most people tend to underply and end up with 1-2 ply twists per inch, which i think is too loose. nice.

Thank you! I actually made a point of adding less twist this time since I want lacy knitting. Didn’t really pay a whole lot of attention after a while. Thank goodness it turned out OK. Used the middle whorl on the Lendrum plying head.
