What is this enticing work of art you ask? I call it Sparkles. A mix of Alpaca, Moreno wool, silk, and Angelina this awesome hunk of flashiness is 100 yards of spinning delight! Recipe as follows:

-2 ounces Alpaca fiber(same color or mix it up)
-0.5 ounces of Moreno wool (gives it bounce)
-0.5 ounces of silk (i used mulberry)
-A pinch of Angelina fiber.

Happy spinning! Comments and up-votes welcome.

Blend fiber together to liking and spin.
I hate to blend for a unified coloring or texture. I want all my ingredients to show themselves.

Ply those lovely singles together, wash, set and hang to dry.

The result? A flashy, bouncy and sinfully soft yarn ready to be worked into the perfect gift. This will be a slouch hat for sure!
