In the interest of “content”, I present the December 2008 Spunky Eclectic Fiber Club offering of “Champagne”. Domestic wool blend.

I carded the top into batts, then spun it woolen for approximately 424 yards averaging 14 wpi (varying from way-too-thin to aran). 5 oz. I’m supposed to get 8 oz each shipment, so I’m hoping there’s a lost spindle with a bunch of this stuff wrapped around it buried in a box somewhere.

Before!

There’s also been some weaving and knitting going on in between plumbing dramas at Chez Purlhood.

STR Scarf

The latest scarf off the rigid heddle loom. Socks that Rock Lightweight as warp and Cascade Heritage Sock as weft.

The knitting?  Right, no pictures available for that.  We’ve entered Winter Gift Knitting Season.
