Post Three




On the right is my first knitted garment made from handspun yarn. It is Bluefaced Leiscester spun on my Lendrum wheel. The yarn came out slubby and bulky weight but I decided to use it anyway. There is a simple cable up each front, and was designed using Sweater Wizard. Soon I'll figure out how to delete photos that I don't want appear.
The sweater on the left is knit from Schaefer and is designed from the Wild Forks design from a magazine pattern, Interweave Knits I think. The tank that goes with it is still on the needles . My first recent attempt to knit something to fit me. The yarn pills like crazy, a function of it's soft hand and gentle nature, I guess.
