I have been 'busy' plying the spun singles
and wound them off the bobbin.
And now I have 225 yards of DK yarn from Blue Faced Leicester wool; very soft and prettily colored. No, I have no idea what I am going to knit from it yet but hope to find something to spark my interest soon!
Here is a bonus photo--A deliciously aromatic rose that was from Bill's Mom's house, she planted down here in 1979 and in 2019, Bill planted near the pond out back where it has more moisture. It is thriving despite some loving attention from the deer and a few floods!
Lovely yarn!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how tough roses can be! (That one is as old as me!)
My neighbor has a beautiful rose bush growing on the property line. When it's in bloom, I get that wonderful scent when I walk out the front door.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely skein! I'm sure it will tell you what it wants to be soon enough. I've been sitting mine in plain sight because if I put them in the stash they never seem to appear again and that's just sad.
ReplyDeleteI planted a rose last year and I've yet to look to see if it made it through the winter. I need to do that when I get home.
Beautiful yarns and equally beautiful roses!! Happy weekend!
