Mysterious Knitting


I'm in the process of winding the wool for the Mystery Shawl, knit along due to begin tomorrow. I ordered a half-pound skein of Monty 3/9 Merino from Sheila at Wool 2 Dye 4 on Wednesday, and plucked the package from my mailbox on Friday. In addition to the wool, the package included a sample of Lavender Eucalan and a card with generous samples of the wools offered at Wool2Dye4. $12.00 was all this wondrous bounty cost me!!

The orange dreamsicle deliciousness is a product of about a dozen packages of Kool-Aid Lemonade and a sprinkling of Orange and Tropical Punch. Even after generous rinsing, it smells like a lemon sheep.

Now for the swatch.....
