The Money Shot
Since I have my 50mm lens on (still haven't had occasion to take it off), I thought I'd take a nifty picture of the new yarn. This is the BMFA Atomic #6 that BigAlice sent me last year. All plied, it's 310 yards and 3.5oz.

Also, this is closer to the actual colors of this yarn. Keep in mind that the fluorescent lighting can be very unflattering, though.

FO - BMFA Atomic No. 6
This is a true 3-ply, not a navajo-ply. Final weight is 99g or 3.5oz. There's an additional 5g ball of singles that didn't make it into this yarn. The fluorescent light in here does nothing for the color of the yarn, which is much darker and purpler than it appears here. Great new camera, but it's a diva when it comes to lighting, I guess.

Spinning WIP
BMFA, Atomic #6. I'm making an effort to spin this just a shade thicker so I can get a nice, sproingy sock yarn out of it. You can see how I'm going between really thin and mostly thin. It's hard to spin thick once you get the hang of laceweight!

Here, have a blurry picture of fiber.
It looked fine on my camera. Oh, well.
