Merino blend from New Mexico

This is the first batch I've spun from the top my friend brought to me from New Mexico.  I plied it Monday night after work. I think the yarn measures between 140 and 150 yards, but at this time my DH is making a Niddy Noddy for me using the directions posted by mamas2hands at http://mamas2hands.wordpress.com . It is made from parts of PVC pipe so it is light weight and can be taken apart for travel, if needed.
I will begin spinning the second half of the merino top used for this yarn this weekend because I bought some really nice bamboo/silk/merino blend at Stitches South that I want to get to soon.  
Until the next time, happy knitting, spinning, or whatever your passion!
