Turned a tangled debacle first try at Andean plying into rolags.

I've spent hours over the last week, taking a fleece I washed last summer and separating it out into locks to make life easier when it comes to carding or combing the fleece.

On a red dish towel, there's a tableau of washed Dorset fleece in a picked cloud and carded into rolags, plus hand cards and a diy spindle. It's almost an aesthetic flat lay, but then you realize it's a dingy red towel on tan carpet.

Getting over a cold, but feeling okay enough to play with some Dorset. This is the fleece I washed over the weekend, picked open and carded into rolags. The texture is delightfully spongy and quite soft (I'd guess microns in the mid-high 20s?).

This little lamb fleece is absurdly soft. Jack has shorter staple lengths, making him an ideal hand carding candidate. Couldn't resist bringing him home for the business after feeling the handle!
