Hi y'all. Here's a photo of a hank of handspun I finished on Monday.
It is a 3-ply yarn: two plies of space-dyed superwash merino, one ply
of black merino/silk for strength and to make the stuff go farther. I
ended up with just shy of 500yd of yarn, now I have to decide if I
want to make a skinny scarf and cap set or a pair of socks.

Maybe not. A friend dyed that for me as an Xmas present. There *is*
some purple in it but not much, and the yellow is a bit in-my-face.
Overall I'm please with it though, and it does me good to work outside
my comfort zone occasionally :D

something that lovely.
