I am getting so close to being ready to cast on for a sweater in this handspun! I have 2 more skeins to spin and then I will have officially spun up all of this pastel dream fiber and I will be able to move on to the next step. Maybe I’ll even treat myself to a little swatch this week to motivate myself! The truth is, I didn’t even like this yarn when I started spinning it 7 years ago! Yes, I’ve been working towards this project on and off (mostly off) for 7 years of my life. LOL! I dyed the fiber with a soothing, whispers in the wind, palette in mind. I spun the first braid and… bummersville, it was not what I was envisioning. It was decidedly more blue and pastel and babyish than I wanted. But that’s the beauty of time, 7 years later and I’m into it! I’m excited about it and I WILL knit this into a sweater if it’s the last thing I do! Actually, I’ll probably knit it into more than one sweater because I think I have quite a bit of yardage here. I currently have no idea exactly how much yardage but… it seems like a lot.
At this point I’m thinking of knitting a fingering weight version of my Skylights sweater. That would be pretty right? What would you knit with this special yarn?
