Spring

I finished Spring, otherwise known as the Easter egg dye roving. The yarn turned out nice and the colors are very muted. I like how it turned out. I got 301 yards of 2 ply at about a DK weight.

Gina and Loribird thanks for the lace tips. As a newbie to lace I sometimes get intimidated by it. The pattern I was talking about is Spring Things. I just love how this looks so I finally just bought the pattern and looked through the charts. I was slightly confused by the repeat part but I think I have it down now after swatching with some yarn I had. I had many a "duh" moment with it but the "aha" moment finally came. I try to over think stuff and end up getting myself all turned around. Now to just decide on a yarn and a color.

You're totally welcome for any lace tips...I have a tiny bit of experience myself, but I'm sure I'll be learning a lot once I start the Myrtle Leaf. This handspun is JUST like spring! What are you going to knit with it?
