Wendy likes the alternating pink/purple/white/purple/pink yarn better so that's what she'll get!!!

I actually like it better too. It was pretty fun spinning it up. I used the Navajo 3ply method of plying in order to get the colors to alternate. I spun my singles by alternating strips of the pink, purple, and white rovings. My sample shown below used only 6" strips of roving. I think that for the final yarn, I will use longer lengths of roving so that the final sock yarn will end up with longer lengths of colors. I'm hoping that I'll end up with more of an Opal/Regia type of "ringel" coloring to it. We'll see!!! I'm very excited about this project. Wendy, I hope you like the resulting yarn. I'll take a wpi measurement tonight.
Fearless Fairisle ProgressI didn't finish the ribbing last night like I wanted.

I only got 2 more rounds finished...that means I'm now up to round 14. I'm going out to eat tonight after work with my sister and my daughter so I will probably work more on the ribbing tonight.
