Frozen Hand-Spun

This is 4 onces of superwash Merino and Tencel from Susan's Spinning Bunny. The colorway is Blueberry Patch. When I ordered this I thought I would spin it on my wheel and make a two-ply. But, after it arrived I decided I should just give in and try to Navajo ply with my spindle. Voila! I spun this on the spindle in batches, wound it into a ball, Navajo-ed it, and attempted to felt the batches together. It actually felted more than I thought it would, though there are weak spots here and there. I was excited about spinning a tencel, and the superwash part didn't click. Still, a great yarn.

Now what?
