How about a small lacy scarf that you can just tuck into your jacket -- I just made one with about 100 yards of cashmere. So happy that you enjoyed it!! Deb — It looks AMAZING!!

A lacey scarf might be just the thing. My friend Ashley made a gorgeous one from the Lavish Lace book I think it was with some of my handspun in a similar color and weight. The pattern name was a long one with flame in the title. If it is any consolation, my "laceweight" hasn't yet ended up bring laceweight either. I need to go so much finer than I think because it blooms a bit when you ply it. I'll get there, though I've heard once you get smaller it is harder to get thicker again. But...

I think your yarn would make a fabulous lace scarf. I think I'll swing by your house while you're at work this afternoon, and do something about that. :-) Though the cashmere and silk blend sounds like it would feel divine on the tootsies, I hate to think of it down there.

Completely bizarre. At least it wasn't the knitting itself that got tangled. Also, your handspun looks beautiful. The same zipper thing happened to me once! Completely bizarre.
