Next on my needles, as I use my stash , two skeins at a time, plus some fuzzy commercial yarn 🙂
Bright hand spun, hand dyed, ready to cast on.

Looks like a fun project with that fuzzy yarn. What are you going to make?

A wide brimmed hat to felt with the fuzzy knitted in as the hat band. If there’s enough left I might do a cowl too, but don’t think there’s enough yardage.

I’m sure that will look great! I didn’t use the knit and felt technique so far. I am afraid I get the gauge wrong and end up with something that doesn’t fit.

The first time felting something is scary, I recommend buying or finding a good pattern and using yarn that is known to felt well—with my experimenting I’ve ended with mini baskets(yarn was too small a gauge) or a giant hat (wool didn’t felt as tight as it should have) but it is addictive and fun.

Hope it was a happy pang/memory. My Mom is the one who taught me to spin and some of my colors are those that were her favorites. The brightness in this one is more mine (she would have preferred a mauve shade)
