Hey - I have four singles that I want to ply - can you email me about how to do this? I have a drop spindle but I haven't yet learned to spin.
Lovely yarn....You might have enough yardage for a Shetland Lace Scarf.
Dye it! Bright coloures, please! Hat!
Hmmm....
I bet a lace scarf would be nice. You should check out the online patterns for this issue of Interweave Knits (staff projects) they have sweet lace patterns for small quantities of yarn.
If you can't find it I can email you the link :-)
Now you know if your asking me I am going to tell you to dye the yarn!!
I would love to see what you come up with. I know it will be beautiful whatever colors you choose.
