There is a Spinalong to Knitalong sponsored by Andrea Mowry. I joined by purchasing her Jaunty Shawl pattern then buying some fiber from Hello Yarn called Little Jaunt. I thought the names went together so well. The first, of two, bags of fiber went through my fingers over the weekend. I made twelve little soft nests. On Monday I pre-drafted them and started spinning on Tuesday. Today, Wednesday, I finished the first bobbin using up seven of the nests. Such a fun activity.
The finished bobbin. You can see it is ghastly yarn but it makes me happy anyway.These are the five remaining nests ready to spin. Maybe tomorrow…
After both bags are spun and plied I will knit that shawl. It is pretty likely I won’t have enough yarn but we shall see. Fun anyway… It will be interesting to see how all things work out!
