Pretty Yarn

Ooh look at this scrumptious handspun yarn that Kathleen Michelle
over at http://fuzzknitter.blogspot.com (A Bag of Olives) sent me! They are a truly beautiful purpleyblue, the photos do not do them justice! I will be finding just the right pattern to show off the sleek stuff... it has great drape, so it will be something around my neck I am sure. The lovely plum scarf below it is finally finished... except for weaving in that short bit on the bottom (oops). I have started, ripped out, and restarted a lovely shawl for a friend... hopefully it will go faster than this one. I need to finish up the cotton that is on my wheel, so I can move on to the wool that is waiting to be spun. I wish I had more energy to spin and weave and sew and all after work, but I most often just read blogs or at best knit. Sigh. Instant infusion of energy needed... SEND IN THE CHOCOLATE!

Thank you for your kind comments and Merlin thanks you too. I'm trying to stay calm but had a massive panic attack last night. I'm back on track today :)

I love the wool, and the shawl looks just so perfect for cold evenings. I hope you had your chocolate :)
