I've been spending a lot of time over on Ravelry at the Completely Pointless and Arbitrary Swap group - what a crazy bunch of ladies - and some terrific swap opportunities!
The spinning is coming along nicely. This is a picture of the final bobbin of Louet merino that I've been spinning on and off for about a year. It's pencil roving, so no prep needed. Just pull it out and start spinning. This is going to be my first Pi Shawl. I think.
This is just a fun little hank that I put together. I plied the remainder of some Hill Country Yarn (the yellow) from a pair of socks with the remainder of a skein of burgundy handspun. Just to see what it looked like! Maybe this will turn into a little striped scarf . . .
Now - where did I put my Ravelry pin - got to find it before tomorrow morning!!!

The burgundy handspun/Country Hill reminds me of Harry Potter Gryffindor colors. In a really subtle nice way.pb
My daughter said the exact same thing! I wasn't even thinking of that when I put the colors together!
Wasn't it just the most perfect day for a Sheep and Wool Festival?!? :)
