Swatches washed

Now here are the same swatches washed. You can see that overspinning the bottom swatch ended up with a balanced yarn after washing.

So now I have respun the ply’s together to make it tightly spun biasing to the left to overcorrect the bias to the right in the original yarns I am plying together. Make sense? It does to me and that is all that matters.

Swatch issues

On the top you can see the grey swatch on size 7 needles after washing and drying. Before washing/drying it had no bias. Now much, much bias. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and re-ply the yarn to make it more biased in the opposite direction. THat is the bottom swatch of the newly extra spun plied yarn.
