Embers

That is the name I have given my newest roving. I wanted it to feel like fire and with 2 yellows, orange, red and black all mixed together it looks a lot like I wanted.

I started on the plain version of Flowers and Snow last night. It should be a totally different looking yarn from the one I did with the fuchsia and purple ply. I will have to get a shot of them together.

I am still struggling with the Starsky belt as it is just so dang boring. I am getting close but at this rate it is going to be a few more days at least. Maybe I will just force myself to knit on it tonight and get it done. It really would only take and hour or 2 to finish if I would just get to it and since I am really wanting to start the CeCe cardigan I think I will. Once the belt is done I will get some shots of it since it really does look great. It is my best work yet, I think, my seams have come along way and they really make a difference.

Boy, you picked the perfect name for this fiber! It's like I plucked it right out of my wood stove! Does it smell smoky, too? LOL! I know what you mean about some knitted items being SO boring...but once you get close, it'll fly by! Good luck!

I love the roving - I can envision it spun up, and can hardly wait to see the finished product. And I'm waiting with baited breath to see what you call your "best yet!"

Wow, you're just getting to be a sweater maven! Can't wait to see your finished Starsky. :-)

I love the embers! Reminds me of a campfire. I can't wait to see it spun up.
