Do You Remember Stella?

She was the very first fleece I had ever spun.  When the natural color yarn was complete I dyed it with natural dye from my garden.  Remember?  

Here she is today, on her way to becoming a beautiful yellow lace wrap.  This will be a project for me personally, and not for sale in the shop.  I find lace knitting very rhythmic and relaxing.  It requires a decent amount of concentration, so it's not an "in front of the TV" knit.

She looks crumply and bunchy now, but wait till you see her all stretched and blocked!  I'll be sure to show her to you then.
