I spent the weekend both working in the yard and working on some loose ends. One of the goals that I set for myself this weekend was to finish up this roving, that Marisol gifted to me earlier this spring. It's the "Takes Two" colorway, spun in a fine sockweight. My 15 year old keeps begging for some mittens made with this yarn, but I go back and forth between mittens or some ankle socks for her. Maybe there will be enough to do both :-)
I am really resisting the temptation to start something new. I have a number of projects that I have started over the year, that I would really love to finish. I don't know why I have such a hard time staying faithful to one project. The lure of something new is always tempting me.....so many lovely yarns, so little time.....
So.....in addition to spinning the CMF roving this weekend, I also worked on the Wool Peddler shawl from Interweave Knits Folk Shawls. I should finish up with this tonight and have it blocking tomorrow (I hope anyways....). This will be a nice shawl for the fall festivals. I'm thinking that I would really like a sweater in the gold colors that are in this yarn. Maybe something in Silky wool.....mmmm.....
