new mindless project....


i always need a perfectly mindless project...just knitting--no counting or pattern. that way i can watch intense movies, knit at the doctor's office, knit through Adaylia's epic story of the dinosaur with the special wing that can fly, etc, etc, etc. this handspun is my new mindless project. i spun it earlier in the year from black-black-black merino top, recycled silk in several vivid (almost blinding!) colors, bright colored kid mohair locks, and a sprinkling of dyed nylon sparkle. i plied it with a strand of commercially spun cotton. (the cotton wouldn't have been my first choice, but it was here and what else was i going to use it for)...so, voila!
