Now I want to knit it

IMG_0081.JPG IMG_0076.JPG

El Matchador and I are spending a lot of quality time together lately. I think watching the videos on the new edition of Spindlicity played no small part in my recent spinning binge.

I was able to finish off all 7 ounces of Blue Moon Fiber Arts roving, and I'm already a bobbin and a half through some more of the creamy white Cormo I got a little while back.

Specs

  • Roving From: Blue Moon Fiber Arts
  • Colorway: Eggplanted
  • Fiber: Merino/Bamboo
  • Total Yards: 690
  • Skeins: 2 and a baby skein
  • Ply: 2
  • WPI: 12-ish
  • Weight: 7 ounces

I think I could make a little something fitted with this or get a little more mileage by using another yarn and working stripes. Or maybe I'll make a vest. Hmm. Whatever I do I want to make it something special. I just love the colors.

Also, I'm just wondering, is it just me or is this cute?

Hi Marnie,

I just nominated you for a Kreativ Blogger award (I guess I'll just get in line!!) Anyway, you can see the details on my blog.

Donna:

Ridiculously cute - that first picture, in particular, would make an adorable Valentine's Day card. I am drooling all over my keyboard looking at that yarn. It is fantastically gorgeous (especially since I have a particular weakness for anything purple).

No, it is not just you, it is too stinkin' cute for words!

I just nominated you for a Kreativ Blogger Award. :)

Of course it's not just you -- they're ADORABLE! Dog friends are the best thing ever.

And your yarn is also gorgeous, of course! :)

you have been awarded creatively ;) go check my blog

mai:

it's crazy cute! the handspun is beautiful.

wow; it's GORGEOUS! perhaps a short-sleeve button-down cardi?

so I was going to de-lurk just for the beautiful yarn but the critters clinched it.

thanks for the smile to start my day!

Beth:

It's not just you, that is adorable!

I agree, those colors are absolutely gorgeous.

I want Doggy's sooooo much! They are reeeeeally cute!

So adorable! That handspun is just amazing. I love the colors and the sheen. I know you will make something beautiful with it. :)

Lani:

Your handspun is lovely!! I think it would look wonderful as a vest. Your pups are TOO cute!!

No, it isn't just you. They're ridiculously cute.

Although they bear no resemblance, Thea's huge ears make so much of her expressions just like my Lunil's.

LOL! No, it's not just you. That is CUTE! ;-Þ

Did you manage to pose them like that, or did you just catch them like that? What a couple of camera hams! ;-)
