JUST HAD TO DO IT!


Yes, I did spin up two bobbins of the Wensleydale.  And yes I did ply up a skein.  But I found this 1/2 pound ball of  emerald green Corriedale that I got at Rhinebeck last visit.  And I just couldn't help spinning up a bobbin to see what it looks like.  I have never had this color of fiber before and I just love how vibrant it is.  The vendor for this fiber was The Sheep Shed and you can see her fiber at www.sheepshed.net.

So ...... yes, I will finish plying the rest of my spun Wensleydale and then get on with green.  Hopefully, I can knit up something terrific before St. Patrick's Day.
