    Holy cow, your plying is gorgeous! 45m is enough for a spiral slip stitch pattern contrast color in a hat or something, or stripes on mittlets. Or using as lines in a felting design?

    Hi Wendy, great ideas! I've got heaps of these little skeins I should be using! These skeins weren't totally balanced, but I also like the plying :-)

    Oh Claire it has been years since I have spun a piece of wool! I really miss the wonderful smells and tactile nature of spinning, but the wheel just gathers dust in the garage at the moment. I think though that it is something that will come around again, and be just as wonderful. Its the knitting that I get bogged down on. I guess you have seen the wonderful beanies that are produced for the Beanie festival in Alice Springs? Should come up easily on google if you haven't - just wonderful.

    Hi Linden, I love the smell of a greasy fleece :-) I go through phases with my knitting. I love to knit, but I find it difficult to set aside time to complete things. I am familiar with the beanie festival. I should go up there one day and check it out in person.
