Time to feed the blog!

So, I've been a busy knitter lately, really busy. Somehow I found my knitting mojo again and for the last two months, I've been marathon knitting like crazy. So now I have two knitting projects to show you. One I'll do today, the other later.

Today: Ishbel

Specs: Knit the larger version, out of a handspun rambouillet/silk blend from Crystal Creek Fibers. This project took about 5 oz of fiber and 510 yards of yarn.










This was a way easy knit that really showcased the variations in the handspun yarn. I need to take some better pictures of it, but I'm not seeing that as a problem as I'm really looking forward to wearing it. Ishbel will make a lovely Fall shawl.
