Handspun Juno Regina in progress.

Almost forgot to post this on here. I've got a handspun shawl in the works. It started out as 4 ounces or so of bfl from YarnWench in Cherrybomb.
I spun it up into a 2 ply lace weight yarn, and got about 830 yards.
Here's a close up shot.
I am knitting it into a Juno Regina shawl/stole and it's looking pretty good!
I plan on doing two halves, and grafting. I want to have symmetricalness and all that. :)

Beautiful work - an inspiration to those of us still learning the craft. I look, I drool, I keep spinning - because of examples like yours. Thanks for posting.

wow this yarn is lovely, and so is the project. I don't have that kind of skill, and though it takes practise to make perfect, i don;t always have the time.
