Friday Fluff: Something New

 

I tried but I couldn't do it. Leave the Ladybug without a project, that is. I went digging in the nearly depleted fiber stash and came up with this superwash Merino/Tencel blend.

The gradient purple is lovely but....it's shiny. Really shiny. I'm not a fan but that's not going to stop me from working with it. I'll adjust. 

I retired two more stitch markers this week from the handspun Pi Shawl. The markers that count off 20 stitch sections were a very good idea because I no longer feel like I'm getting nowhere. I can see progress now. It's all mind games with this stuff, isn't it?
