Yarn, yarn everywhere!
There's been a lot of yarn going on recently...
Along with the lovely sock yarn, I was also given this beautiful roving on Saturday by raeknits.
It's merino tencel blend from Mind's Eye Yarns which will turn into socks. :)
I also have some handspun to show. The singles were in this entry.
The plied yarn:
and closer...
And all wound up and ready to knit!
This is the first time I've knit with my own handspun, and I'd say it's going rather well. Look for a FO in the next few days.
And then there was the mail...
I got this Lisa Souza in a swap with zknitter - it's called Little Devil.
And I got my first package from Scout's Indie Swag Club!
Although the yarn isn't something I would pick off a shelf, I do like the black/white/grey combo. The bag is growing on me. I wasn't really big on it when I took it out of the box, but even later this evening I like it more.

Yay for yarny package days!! Nice handspun there too!
The bag is cute! If you won't wear it, you could still use it to hold projects and stuff. Can't wait to see what you're making with the handspun.
Lovely handspun!
The swap is great! I love the black and white theme.
Your handspun looks even better plied. About what weight would you say it is?
You must love the mail man/lady! Isn't it interesting how packaging can make a huge difference in how much you like a color? I think the Scout yarn and bag combo look awesome together. I've also read that people tend to be drawn to colors that coordinate with what they're wearing.
Love the bag & yarn.. They look AWESOME!
