Like I needed to buy more roving!

I sooo love this colorway called Grass that my friend Tina dyed.
It's 4oz. of a wool/mohair blend. It spins up so lovely & fast.
It just glided through my fingers lightning fast.
Feels like silk and has that wonderful sheepy smell still. MMmmmm...

I can't wait until it's all done because Irina gave me the BEST idea at knit group last night.

I was saying how I have all this handspun yarn, almost all of the hanks are 4oz each and I don't want to use them! I'm hoarding them without a purpose. I just adore it all.

And so I learned a new trick. Entrelac! And I am loving it.
Irina's idea?

Use all my handspun for an entrelac blanket.

BINGO!
