Ok, so, now what?

Practical use for a pot rack
This is only an estimate but, I think I ended up with about 60 yards. I wasted some yardage that was over-twisted, and ditched the effort to loosen it up.
Yum! Who says wool is scratchy and unpretty? Hmmf!
Well, I had set out to make me a neck warmer, and that is exactly what this is going to be when it grows up. Now it's just a matter of deciding which pattern! Do I want it to be a nice snug rib pattern? Flat? In-the-round? Suggestions appreciated!

{a bit o' spinnin'}

Since I took this photo today, I filled another spindle with what wouldn't fit on the first one. It's been way too long since I made the time to just sit, spin, and finish up what I wanted to for a project. I received this roving from Cosy Makes Falkland Fiber Club - from November 2010, I think it was.

Tomorrow when I have a chance, my new yarn will be wound up on my niddy noddy, given a good soak, and hung to dry. I'll be sure to take pics!
