Finished Objects

Now that my shop has been open for a while it's been really nice to see some finished things made with my fibre. My friend Jane was one of the first people to hear about my plans for my shop after I decided to leave teaching, she was also one of my first customers.

She bought this fibre

Some Merino, Alpaca and Silk, and spun it in to this yarn.

This is typical of how my fibres spin up, random patches of different fibres, to create something that's quite tweedy looking. I was amazed about how quickly she spun it up, I was even more amazed 2 days ago when she posted a picture of the finished shawl on Ravelry!

The pattern is Holden, and as ever with Jane's knitting is really beautiful. Go and have a look at her Blog, you won't regret it!
