This is spun from a silk sweater that I destroyed. I really love green and orange together, but when you dye them next to each other you get a brown gunky mess. This is a great solution. I also had just bought a some green-toned roving from a woman on ebay. The colors blended perfectly. It’s hard to tell when the wool ends and the silk starts. Also- this is my first foray into silk knitted sweaters. I wasn’t sure how it was going to spin because the fabric tends to be pretty dense. I had to cut it into super thin strips. I really liked the ragged texture of the yarn.
