I've finally finished up a project that I purchased in the spring of 2015. I saw a beautifully knit sample when I was in Syracuse NY, and decided that it would make a great addition to my winter wardrobe. The yarn – WoolFolk Tynd – is wonderfully soft. And the finished object is interesting and something I think I can easily dress up or down.

Miles and miles of drab green stockinette later I was ready to crochet 372 miles of vertical lines down this shawl. Okay. Maybe not 372 miles, but it felt like it. I'm not good with the crochet hook... I can't look away, and it feels a little unnatural to me. But I mustered through and I do love the finished piece.

Now that this is done I plan to focus on some spinning... I've got some beautiful Targhee from Nest fiber that I'm half through.

And betwixt and between, I'll be working with Crave Yarn One and a new lightweight cardigan for the small fry.
Have a lovely start to your July.
