So 4 ounces has become approximately 550 yards of this lace weight yarn.

Not exactly what I expected.  It’s more brown than I thought it would be, but still lovely.  I’m thinking the next 4 ounces should be socks – a nice 3-ply.  I don’t think I need anymore of this in lace weight.

DH suggested the pom pom on back.

I would definitely knit this one again. This was made out of the singles handspun that I dyed the color blue and my verdict is singles for knitting are here to stay. Yeah! I think mine were a little more energized than would be called for, especially called for the shawl, so I will have to work on that, but really I loved the singles.

I seem to be on an EZ or what I would call functional knitting kick. I keep thinking these singles would be so useful for a EZ Bog jacket or an Adult Totem – anything in garter really. I could whip things up a little faster for gifts – total time for this project and I swatched to death was only about 3 hours including the spinning and dyeing portion. I don’t know about all of you, but I’m going to have to start my gift knitting for the holidays. I know sickening, but everyone wants everything handspun.

I was thinking more texture in the way of thick and thin, but I can’t really complain – there is a lot of texture and it’s so soft and bouncy.

After seeing Julie’s beautiful fleeces come back. I finally got myself in gear and packed up my fleeces. I was hoping to get them all in the box below, but I couldn’t manage it this time and put two little ones in the top box. It took me a while, because I started to hmm and haw over whether I should put the Cormo I bought earlier in the box. I didn’t have as good luck with the washing as I normally do. Normally I put them in a bag and wash… with this one I should’ve washed lock by lock. Oh well… live and learn. I’m sending them to Spinderella’s and she’ll probably make it beautiful and tell me I’m worrying too much. Hopefully – keep you’re fingers crossed.
