I have been super busy this week with fiber-y things. First, I finaly finished frogging and re-knitting my Lady Eleanor on the #9 needles. I am glad I did too. On the #7’s, with 4 balls used, it was about 20 inches long if I stretched it. Now it is 36″ long and has tons of extra drape!
Shag Carpet – just 1oz to practice spinning singles. I love the way it came out!
Plum – 4 oz of wool blend. The color changes are so beautiful and subtle on this one and its mate, Arakis
The last one I am working on is a combination of a bunch of different colors from SmokyMountainFibers . I also got Plum and Arakis from her shop. I cleaned out her shop earlier this fall and I have had all this wonderful fiber sitting around waiting for me to figure out what it wanted to be. The self striping experament seemed perfect for this fiber. I am calling it Shade Garden!
I have over 20 oz of different shades of green, blue and purple in random amounts. So I layed them out in order and I am spinning it all up into this yarn!
