Here are the finished skeins of the 14 micron wool I have been spinning. In total there is just under 440 grams. Don't ask me how many meters! I am hoping to do a nice shawl or light cardigan or vest with it.
So here is the questions I am asking you all: Should I dye it? Should I leave it plain? Should I do a shawl, or cardigan, or vest? Do you have a pattern that would really suit it?
If I choose your pattern or use your ideas, I will give you a little gift! I won't be starting to knit it for at least a couple of weeks (not 'til after we get back from Adelaide), so you have time to put your thinking caps on.
Today we finally told Rory (our son) that we are going on a plane ride for our holidays. Lach and I have known for a month, but decided we wouldn't tell him until closer to the leaving date as otherwise, we would have a constant nagging asking how many days till we leave. This way, we only have a few days of nagging but he also has a bit of time to get used to the idea and tell all his friends before he finishes school for the term. The specialist staff at the school who look after Rory have said they would do a social story with him tomorrow to explain what a plane ride entails and how he needs to behave on an airplane and what to expect. At this time he is very excited.
Have got Spinners on tonight. Joey has reminded me to bring in my sock wool and a very cool pattern about knitting 2 socks in 1 that I found on Knitty.com. this is a great article, but would be a huge challenge for someone like me who has never even knitted a sock! However, for some of those of you out there who are addicted to socks, and not scared of about 20 pages of instructions, this is the ultimate pattern for you! Click on the link below to check it out. (I just liked the intro!)
Love peace and JOY JOY JOY
