Here's my entry for the ugliest yarn contest. This is from the multi-colored roving I dyed yesterday.

Take my word for it, it is much uglier in person.

As a single ply, the yarn was quite pretty, but plied, it looks horrid. I plied only a small portion because I didn't think I would like it.

Here I've taken the roving and split it into thin strips and knit it. I like this a lot better.


I might separate the plies and either ply it with a solid color, or ply it with the dark blue/green I dyed yesterday.
If I knit the roving into a scarf, I might use the ugly yarn for fringe, so for now I'm going to leave it as is.
