More handspun socks, yarn, and an almost FO :)
posted Tuesday, March 10th, 2009 by SarahFrom last week, I never quite got around to blogging them, but they came out super cute.. knit from the Fern Gully yarn I made last fall, which was shaded from Blue to brown, and then to green:
I have a little bit leftover that is the rest of the brown to blue transition.
I also finished some more yarn last week… this is sort of sport-ish weight, and I’m not sure what I’ll do with it quite yet since it’s too heavy to go through the sock machine.
I Navajo-plied some scraps I had hanging out on bobbins
Then I Navajo-plied an entire bobbin I had spun some time back… it’s hand combed marsh romney and I’m rather happy with this batch compared to the rest of this wool I had carded and spun into a 2-ply yarn. No idea what I’m doing with this yet, but it will likely become part of a weaving project in the not too distant future
And I’m nearly done with my Kelso Cardigan! All I really have left to do is graft the unerarms and weave in all the ends.

Gorgeous photos!! I especially love that gradated green sock at the top! Everything is just super.
