I might as well change this quilting section to just knitting and spinning. I am unable to quit playing with fiber, I confess I am just addicted to spinning and knitting up the hand spun yarn. I know knitters will understand how much fun it is to knit with special yarns and hand spun yarns.
This fiber blend is a polworth and silk blend dyed up by CorgiHillFarm over on Etsy. I love their fibers and colorways. This is called Tidal Froth. I spun it up lightly, and gave it a two ply in about a fingering /dk weight and sat on it till I found a
pattern that spoke to me.
The pattern here is a little cowl that only took about 180 yards is called Pei and you can find it on Ravelry. It was so easy to knit up and was done in two days. I blocked it and its so light and like a feather weight it will be an amazing little accessory for spring going into summer.
I am spinning on a Sonata Kromski wheel. Its great to have my wheel close at hand because when I have knit my hands into arthritic revolt, I can go spin which leads to more ideas for knitting...and the cycle continues!
