finished, felted and unspun

Firstly, I finished a pair of clogs for my father’s birthday next week.

Using the felted clog pattern and lamb’s pride worsted weight yarn in navy and olive, these are the unfelted clogs.

Secondly, here they are felted

Happy Birthday Dad!! Finally done!

Thirdly, the lovely ups man dropped off  a package & in it was the pencil roving I ordered off of Ebay from the Chenille Yarn Shop (link on the right sidebar). Janice is great with fast shipping and good service.

You can get a better idea of the gauge of the yarn in my hand

The cone is 3 lbs so I have quite a bit. Now the dilemma, do I spin it or just knit the roving? I bought it to just knit the roving & that is what I will try first. But the idea of getting more out of it by spinning it makes the thrift-ho in me happy. We’ll just have to wait & see, won’t we?
