Are you spinning for the Tour de Fleece?

This year the Tour completely snuck up on me and it's in the midst for the nuttiest time of summer for my family. But I can't let it pass, I love a challenge.

I'm going to spin for Tappen Zee by Amy King. I've been wanting to make it since we published it in Knittyspin.

Tappen Zee from Spring+Summer 2010 Knittyspin

What will I spin it out of? Here's my pound of yumminess:

Merino, BFL and Silk in moody colors

The fiber on the left is Blue Moon Fiber Arts, 75% BFL/75% Tussah, color: Obsidian – a gorgeous gray with biths of blue gray and touches deep red gray.

The fiber on the right is Winterhaven Fiber Farm 80% Merino/ 20% Tussah, color: Mahogany – a deep, rich, brown red.

What are you spinning for the Tour?
