Finished!

So what have I shown and what haven’t I?  I don’t know, and will have to check, but in any case, I have been knitting a mess ‘o Christmas gifts.  I have been torn about showing the FOs, however, and have decided of late, what the heck!

So here they are…

Hand knit socks…

Neckwarmers…

Sweaters to keep little girls warm (one from Grandmama’s handspun.  Do you think she will notice?)

There is yet one more still on the needles as of this writing...

Also, some spun up fiber…

Many colored merino, all spun up randomly (worsted 2-ply)

BFL (fluffy singles)

My most recent navajo plying practice efforts

I recently found and acquired through Ravelry four wool batts (cheviot/suffolk).  The flock’s owner had the fleece processed to be used as quilt batts, but the seller was offering them on Ravelry to spinners, for which they could be used, and quite nicely.  I bought the lot of 4 (2 regular, and 2 crib) thinking I would use some for quilting at least, and maybe some for spinning, not having spun cheviot or suffolk.  Well, I think, after having seen, touched, and experienced them?  These babies will make some yummy quilts and throws.  They are very nice wool, indeed.

I am looking towards some sewing and quilting in the New Year.  2 grandbebes need their quilts finished, and these batts are crying out for some attention, as well.
