My favorite handspun yet
All time favorite handspun to date is now completed. The fiber was purchased at London-Wul farm and had been hand dyed by Heidi in these amazing colors.
My friend, Line, had purchased the fiber after I pointed out to her how it was a perfect match for her color tastes. And then I said "And I would spin it for you, as long as it's less than 8ounces!". Heidi kindly bagged it for her, providing a little more than 8 ounces but I wasn't supposed to know.
She plans to make this gorgeous shawl. Can you imagine how beautiful that will be? I can't wait. I'm sure she will blog about it so we can all follow along in the progress.

Beau-ti-ful... Did you navajo plied it to get all the colours to match or was it plain patience (in which case you are my idole).

Oh, Tan, that's absolutely beautiful! Have you been practicing a whole lot, or are you just a natural?!
Manon - she is just plain patient. That is not navajo plied. Thanks Tanya for spinning this up for me. It is gourgeous. As soon as I can get these #%&^ MBA projects out of the way, I am going to cast on.
Beautiful! I can't wait to see the shawl now!
