Do you remember the autumn-colored merino I bought at the Hemlock fiber festival? Well, first I turned it into this:
And then, I knit it into this:
This is the Peace Shawl, and it was almost the perfect size for the amount of yarn I had spun. I had to work 6 fewer rows before the edging, and I literally hat a foot of yarn leftover. (That bind-off was a bit scary, because I was sure I’d run out of yarn to bind off with 10 stitches before the end!)
This is the first yarn I’ve spun that I’ve felt was worth knitting into something, and I’m very, very happy with how it came out!
