I had brilliant fun today learning to use hand carders to blend colours
Blend fibres, here I've used Merino and Silk
Finally we weighed ourselves 200g in whatever colours/fibres we desired and used drum carders, I used a maual one for blending orange, blue and red
And of course I had to buy 100g baby camel and silk 
It's really soft

I absolutely agree with Janice.
Twistfibrecraft are wonderful. Lovely people and great teaching.
And the photos have made me want to get my carders out again.
