I realized it was the perfect yarn for a scarf for my dad. He has lovely hazel eyes, and the colors of yarn are muted, like him.
I used the One Row Handspun Scarf pattern from the Yarn Harlot. Maybe I won't be half crazed trying to finish gifts this year....maybe, this will be the year. 
I also cast on a scarf for me in my Adelaide handspun (Merino, dyed by David at SCF). Originally I tried the My So Called Scarf pattern, but wasn't happy with the look of it, so I frogged it. I cast on Two Weeknights with Warrick, and am loving the easy rhythm of knitting this.
Gorgeous scarves! Your dad is very lucky.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear it's raining there again. It's the same here---pouring rain. Oh well, like you sais, it's good for knitting and spinning.
