I am probably about 2/3 – 3/4 of the way through the Mountain Stream Scarf and when I started I had only spun 1/2 the yarn. I have since spun the rest as I have shown but when I started the new ball this happened:
Can you see the colour change? It is much more pronounced in real life. Talk about different dye lots – but it’s all natural so I am just going with it in the hope that it will even out as I keep on knitting….. Part of the charm? This poor project is a never-ending story but I think I am making head way and if I can put it before a few gift knits then it should be done in a week or so…..

Is it different parts of the fleece? What a pain! The only thing I could suggest would be to go back to a few rows before the join and alternate the two lots to blend the change, but that means wasting work you’ve already done, which is never a happy choice.
