FO - Perfection Pants with my own Handspun!

These pants were spun with mostly wool sliver (very, very lanolin rich wool) or wool in the grease. The white and black stripes are alpaca and llama blends. You can see some of the yarn that went into these pants a few posts down. It was really fun to make these pants! Taso loves them. It was really cool when I was just about done knitting and I knew that I had to spin one more bobbin full to finish the pants.

Semi FO - Hexagon Roving Rug

I say semi-finished because I plan to add at least two more hexagons to form a bigger rug. One will be in the same natural colored roving as the one Taso is happily sitting on and the other will be mostly green with 2 of the 6 triangles blue. The green will be grass for his animals and the blue will be their pond! It is so soft and wonderful! Thank you, Laura, for gifting me with so much roving. Taso really likes his rug and I think I will go start on the green one right this minute!

FO - WonderPants













These are the pants I was working on for a friend who sent me all the wool yarn she recieved from FreeCycle. They turned out really cute! I used Paa-tons (lisa!) craperino for the waistband and cuffs.
