Divide the top into 3 x 30 g, 2 x 5 g. Spin these blended tops (Agate, Marina, Whispering Well) in 5 ways:

Yarn 1, 30 g per top. Divide each unit into 4 pieces, and spin 2-ply of AA/AA/AM/MM/MW/WW/WW into 5 colour gradient.

Yarn 2, 30 g per top. Divide each unit into 9 pieces, and spin a 3-ply 7 colour gradient. With or without blending first. AAA/AAA/AAM/AMM/MMM/MMW/MWW/WWW/WWW

Yarn 3, 30 g per top. Divide each unit into 16 pieces. Use blending board to blend a 9 colour gradient. AAAAAAAAAA/AAAM/AAMM/AMMM/MMMM/MMMW/MMWW/MWWW/WWWWWWWWWW. Divide each blended colour into two and spin 2-ply.

Yarn 4, 5 g per top. Spin each colour into a single, ply into classic 3-ply.
