Lovely Lavender and Gold

I just love how this fiber turned out. I started by dying alpaca  from EastWest Alpaca Ranch a lovely violet color. And then I added in white tussah silk and lots of gold firestar. It's SHINY. And lavender-y.

This is what it looked like after dying and before I carded it:

Now I ask you, how can you resist this lovely fiber? I don't think my camera is doing justice to the gold firestar, but when I look at this roving, I want to stop everything and make something out of it.
