All started back in December.. that was the last time I dyed any fibre.. been too busy since!
So some white merino was turned into this
Which I named Yasmina
And was the first fibre I spun on my Pioneer wheel
On the bobbin
Spun and plied.. 557 yrds
Over at Ravelry, came across the pattern Pogona and knew that was the one for this yarn
Stephen used fingering weight yarn and mine going by wraps per inch was slightly finer.. so went down a needle size to 3.75m and I had enough yarn.. with a little left over.. better that that not enough ;)
Love how this one has turned out .. just need the weather to turn chilly and I will be wearing it.

Just love that shawl. Your handspun yarn looks very different to the dyed fibre though. Looked beautiful in real life though. Will definitely be my next spinning project I think. Just need to choose which fibre to use.
forgot to add, wonder who's been making you so busy?! LOL
