I wanted a two-ply yarn that would be an appropriate weight for a scarf that was warped with 8/2 bamboo sett at 24 epi on my 8 harness Louet. The fur drum on the carder had left the fiber nice and airy, perfect for a woolen yarn. Now I wanted to figure out a way to keep it soft. Treadling very slowly and using a long draw seemed to result in a yarn that would make a good weft for my project. After spinning singles and plying, I wound the yarn on my niddy-noddy.
