The finished yarn. It comes off the niddynoddy very kinky, as the yarn gets somewhat overspun, so I wet the yarn to release the twist, stretch the skein out in my hands, and then hang it (without weights) to dry.
A closeup of the technique effect
Adding the dyed locks in as I ply the yarn I put a finger in between the 2 singles at the drafting triangle, and let the locks twist into the space between the 2 plies, trying to keep the lock formation intact so the little curls show in the finished yarn.
The multicolored dyed BFL locks, and the singles of teal BFL ready to ply.
