The fibre is an ounce of lovely handpainted that came (along with another ounce and two ounces undyed) with the spindle kit. I'll admit at first I wasn't sure of the colours, but they've really grown on me and I like the way they've spun together. I've only got that little bit left now, which I plan to spin tonight, then onwards to washing etc. Gosh, this is exciting!
Over the weekend I started knitting a pair of Blueberry Waffle Socks for my mum to give to her when I go home for Easter. I surprised myself by knitting nearly a whole sock yet simultaneously annoyed myself by misjudging the amount of yarn I'd need for a pair. Bother.

OMG, I love the colors, they are gorgeous, I'm glad that they are growing on you. Pink is a magical color, and the way it is mixing with the brown and white/grey is jsut fab. I think that'll make something wonderful, but what????
BTW, do you own a ball winder and spindel?
Honestly, I have no idea what I'm going to make with the yarn... for now I'm just content to snuggle it :) I'm glad you like the colour. I have fallen well and truly in love with pink fibre now.
All the spinning equiptment I have to my name is in the photo. In all honesty I'm getting a little worried what might happen when my first pay check comes through once I find work. I think a straitjacket might be called for to restrain me.
Hope you are well :)
P.S. Oh, I've just dropped you an email.
