I made this!

Okay I know it is just yarn, but I love it so much I don't even want to knit it:)
I bought the fiber from a great dyer on etsy Wooly Panda Workshop. The colorway is Plum-Headed Parakeet, I got 338 yards of heavy fingering weight yarn out of 4 oz of Polwarth Top!







I love it and have no idea what to make! Any ideas????

Spin Along #2 Socks

So I just finished my first sock for my Ravelry Group's second spin and knit along. I really love the colors in this sock! To bad I couldn't get great pictures. The camera and the light were not working for me today. The camera batteries even died! I took that as a sign that I had taken enough pictures.





I wish you could see them in person, they are so much better in real life.

Today's Spinning

I just finished spinning 2 ounces of superwash merino! I was trying to get a worsted weight yarn and I think I managed! This is big because I have not been able to spin anything but fine lately!







I am so happy I have 2 more ounces left to spin!
Oh and the fiber came from Woolen Mill St Yarns!
