A couple weeks ago I dusted off the ol' spinning wheel and started some spinning some lovely merino/sea cell roving that I had purchased from
Creatively Dyed at Stitches Midwest this year.

I never really know what I am going to end up with when I am spinning these days. I always want something in the fingering weight area and end up with worsted.

But, it's lovely no matter what.

This is the first 4 oz of the 8 oz I purchased. I ended up with about 180 yards. The second half is going about the same, so I am thinking I will have 360 yards in the end.
Anyone hear handspun Ishbel? What? Who said that!?
Anyway, happy knitting and Happy Thanksgiving!
