Purple, yellow and process

This is a step by step of the creation of a bulky plied yarn. The yellow and purple roving is Polworth, which I crockpot dyed in semi-random splotches, and then pre-drafted into many smaller slivers prior to spinning. The brown single is a carded blend of natural colored Targhee and dyed purple BFL.
As we all know, yellow and violet are color wheel sanctioned complimentary colors.

So: Purple and Yellow--scientifically sound!
