Been Busy...
I have been knitting.
This is my handspun Pampas under way. I love this knit but it is time consuming when you are beading plus it is not something I can work on in the car while waiting for school to get out unless I have finished the beading rows, so I guess it is kind of stop and go knitting.
I also started Flutter in Yarn Chef Creme Brulee. It is much farther along but really just looks longer so not much to see. 
I dyed this for my next lace project, Nefertiti. 
I have started spinning it but it is far from done.
I did finish spinning these 4 one ounce bundles into... 
Into this yarn. A 2ply with almost no matching up of the plies. I want to take the colors to their extremes and this really seemed to. 
And this... 
Into this 3ply.
I think I want to make socks out of this since I got enough yardage out of it but it seems almost too pretty for socks.

Lovely Pampas! I haven't tried beaded knitting yet so I admire those who can!
I love your handspun! You're inspiring me to sit at the wheel!

Whoa! I love that last roving....that colorway is amazing! And that first beaded project...what IS it??? It's gorgeous! I can't believe you're able to use your handspun for that.
You. Are. Awesome!
Please share what pattern that is? Please! LOL!
