Wow, that's stunning. Fractal spinning is my next challenge after I've finished spinning what I hope will be my first true laceweight. I love your colours. What is the fibre blend and from which company?

Fractal spinning really does create a lovely effect. I'm pretty sure this was 80% BFL, 20% silk. It's dyed by Rachel at http://www.dyeabolicalyarns.com/.
