As promised, the poncho

Here's the beautiful poncho (well at least for me):

Details:
US 8
2 skeins of Mountain Colors Wool Quarters in Garnet
1 skein of Colinette Mohair in Velvet Plum
Knit in the round

Surprisingly this garmet is just the right thickness. It's sooo easy to thrown on and be comfy in. Here's a close up:

My Handspun

This is from some Three Waters Farm roving I bought. It's quite thin and perfect for lacework. The color is stunning, vibrant and perfect for spring and summer. I also have another pink combo and a purple combo to work on. Not to mention my cashmere blend and angora blend. Yummy!!!!

Great Job! Your spinning looks great too. Is that from a spindle or did you break down and get a spinning wheel?

How do you spin so finely? I can't imagine (yet) being able to do lace-weight . . . is that plied, or singles? Either way--very impressed!
