I'm not going to moan about having nothing to blog about last week, infact I have at least 19 wip's to finish off, so it is more a case of too busy knitting to blog about it, but I should have some finished objects and also a pattern to share with you by Friday! Although as it's the Christmas Crafts Fair Saturday, if I don't make it back this week you will know why!
Above is the silk I've been spinning for a friend, the brief was to spin black with silvery bits, to knit a scarf for her husband for Christmas, I think the 1st skein is perfect, but I had a bit of a disaster with skein 2 being slightly thicker than the 1st, so had to overdye some leftover grey to get more black. Still it was lovely quality silk to spin, it just didn't want to behave!

LOl sounds like you are busy too :) Great looking yarn too and I am sure it will knit up great . Good luck at the craft fair
Was black hard to spin? It is difficult to knit in the evening with black yarns! Alternating the 3 skeins should give your friend a very beautiful project.
That's lovely! Good luck with the craft fair :)
