Tour de Fleece

So how did I fare on the Tour de Fleece? Not too bad. I finished spinning all the roving for my Sprout Cardi. I had that darn fiber for over 2 years! I am in love with the yarn and how it is knitting up. There is nothing like handspun yarn. I have no updated photos as it has been just too darn hot to have that wool sweater sitting on me as I knit it.

I did get through a few of the hand dyed fibers I had. They turned out real nice



Then there is this one. While I love the bright colors I think it may be too bright for the other yarns I am using with it



Here is my original inspiration


While it is bright and has some angelina for sparkle it isn't like "Here I Am - Check Out My Bling" sort of bright. There is even some muted blue tones. So that is leading me to spin this next to go with it.


I got 2 oz. done. Another 2 to go.


Maybe I can finish tonight. Unless I keep spinning this


It never ends...........

Oh yeah - and tomorrow the Ravelympics begin. I am SO excited about my project. Tune in tomorrow.
