So I can learn which fibers I like etc I got this wonderful Spunky Eclectic sampler pack. It has BFL, Merino, Coreidale and other wool blends.

And here is my ball of 3 ply, a bit "over energized" I suppose and not at all balanced, but i love it just the same!

oooo, pretty sampler! Can't wait to see how you like it. And congrats on your 3-ply!

mmmmmmm... fiber
mmmmmmm....milkshakes

You will love all of Spunky's fibers, they are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pretty sampler.

Your 3 ply doesn't look overplied. It probably just needs a warm soak to set the twist. When it sat on the bobbin, it lost its twist, so when you plied it, it seemed overtwisted. Give it a bath and see how it behaves after.
