One Moth to Love :)


While this moth did bring a smidge of aggravation (eep - running out of yarn!), it was well worth all the effort at the end. Here's a little collage of the various stages of this project. Details and big photos and musings can all be found on the finished objects blog.

I'm now contemplating spinning some yarn for the Mystic Waters lace shawl knit along though I'm not sure if I'm up for it - I have a very limited amount of merino-silk that I think would be lovely, but I'm not sure if I can spin fine enough to guarantee enough yardage. Unlike the yarn I created for the Wing of the Moth, the fiber in question isn't one of my own blends...

Course, I'm also contemplating spinning for the HoneyBee Stole.... :) choices choices!

Back to the wheel....eek!


So I'm knitting along, keeping a close eye on my yarn, and I find myself 3 rows into the corona edging on the wing of the moth....and I'm going to run out. There is no way I'm going to make it without having to spin more yarn....

*sigh* I swore I had enough yardage...but apparently not. I guess I need to haul out the fiber and do a bit more hand blending. Thank goodness it's my own blend and I have more fiber on hand!
