I found some who-knows-what-it-is white slubbed yarn, and I'm using a twisting yarn winder to ply it with sock yarn scraps. I knit a lot of socks, and have a lot of partial balls, since it normally comes in 50 or 100-gram balls. Most of my leftover sock yarn is variegated or self-striping. I'm putting maybe 100-150 cranks on the yarn twister in of one ball, then tying on another ball and continuing.
I had maybe ten balls that had some blue in them, and that's what I'm using.
I wasn't so sure I'd like this, but I knitted a sample, and am pleased.
Ah, back to the winding! Good thing I'm listening to an interesting book.
