Every year my Women's group sends dozens of hat/scarf/mitten sets to Appalachia. I always try to get at least one set done. Here's this year's contribution. It's made out of Red Heart -which gives me hives - but that is what is required for washability and wear's sake.
I mentioned upstream that I finished Zamora for a knitting friend. In contrast to the Red Heart, she's made of this wonderful feeling silk-based yarn from Noro. The striping doesn't do much for me... but the fabric is lovely.
Yesterday I began prepping Angora (bunneh) for spinning. My wheel is on stage until mid-November, but my hope is to have everything ready to go for when she is returned. The plan is to spin a simple two ply for use inside mittens. Not sure if I'll be able to do any more finishing this month - although I've just cast on for one of the aforementioned Christmas mittens. We'll see!
