Edie from PA shared with us her Baby Einstein jacket from the Sally Melville book. It was made using 2 strands of our Silk Myst in Fairy Wings. Great for a baby Sweater because it's machine washable!

Thank you for sharing this cutie with us!

Not quite sure of the colors but this is a skein of Happy Hooves that Lara from Virginia is making into a hat. It's lovely! Thank you for sharing that with us!

Mary Jo a knitter of only 1 1/2 years sent us this Kiri shawl she made out of Silk in the Nightfall colorway. Extraordinary knitting and I love it! Great work, it's beautiful!

From Roseann a knitted scarf from Homespun Handknit. It is about 60 inches long out of a very interesting 3-ply yarn. This hooded scarf feels very nice on and I do enjoy all the color changes she says. Beautiful work Rosanne! Great spinning!

Wendy S. Sent us this skein of handspun using the Superwash/Alpaca in Sicily colorway. Beautiful job!!! I love it! :) Thank you for sharing with us!

From Jen L...Hi Christina! I've completed a couple projects from your rovings and thought you might want to see what became of them. The first picture is your Octopus Garden, spun into sport weight singles and then woven. Both warp and weft are from this roving, no commercial yarn involved. The wrap is about 18 inches wide and 7 feet long, not including fringe. It took most of the pound of wool, but I've still got about three ounces to work into a coordinating hat.

The last picture is the remaining skein from a superwash roving I bought from
you this summer.(Dream Walker) I spun the lot up into a bulky yarn, which my mom then knit into a lovely, happy scarf. I'll have to track her down to get a picture of the scarf. Thank you Jen for sharing these cool projects!!! I love to see how the colors spin up and in their finished project! Thanks again and get a pic of that scarf!

Hard to believe that this is actually the same roving! Krista W. from Harrisonburg, VA picked out the peacock colors and spun them on her drop spindle and her new Louet wheel. This superwash wool is going to be a doormat for her apartment. Almost seems a shame because it's sooo beautiful! Thank you for sharing that with us! :)

Nicole from Boulder, CO sent us this fantastic yarn from the All Seasons 50/50 Cotton/wool blend in Sierra Sunset. Lovely! I'd love to know how many yards came out of that! Thanks so much for sharing it with us!

Krista W. From VA sent us her progress on the Sea Glass 80's Merino. She knitted the sample on size 0 needles and the picture does not do it justice. It is absolutely beautiful! The colors are just tranquil and I can't wait to see the finished product! Thank you for sharing the pics with us!

Beverly from Australia sent us this picture of the lovely "jumper using black alpaca, plied with your finely spun silk. It's a bit difficult to see the detail, but it turned out really well, and I have had a
