I am now obsessed with steeking all the things. I’m dreaming of more handspun stripes, this time for me.
This handspun is some of my very first – 150-ish yard of 2-ply Hello Yarn “Thrive.” It’s been hanging out on a shelf, making me happy for more than 2 years now, and I think it finally wants to become something more. I love the way it looks with the golden yellow Plymouth Tweed I have leftover from my Allegheny dress. I also like it with the orange Skye Tweed leftover from my (unfinished) Vestvember vest from two years ago (which will be finished this month! I think). I tried it out with that oatmeal Skye Tweed as well, and it’s a definite maybe. That sweet pink is some Louet Corriedale that Heather gave me; I’ll be spinning it soon.
So many possibilities for how I stripe this thing, all of them delicious.
I think you should just use them all but the gray. It would be the happiest steeked sweater ever!! You could do patterned sections too for extra fun.
I’m just so bloody jealous of all your yummy handspun yarn that I can’t see straight! 😀
