From Sheep to Sock

So far, I figure, that it has cost me about $500 to make this little skein of yarn.















It all started with a box of this dirty old stuff.



Then I had to buy a bunch of these things in different sizes to straighten out the mess I made when I washed it.



That gave me a few handfuls of this nubby stuff to spin on that used Ashford Traveler that I had sent all the way from New Zealand.



The resulting yarn still has enough vm in it to give you splinters but I'm determined... there will be socks.
