***Contest!***

Do you want skein #20?  This lovely red/orange/yellow skein began as my September 2010 Around the Whorl fiber club selection and was originally called Chervonyy.  It is 50% SW merino/50% tencel, and spun up to 136 yards of N-plied sport weight yarn (ranging from 9 to 15 WPI).  Leave me a comment telling me what you would make with this little skein and at the end of the month I'll pick my favorite comment and mail off "hellfire" to the author!  Easy enough, right?  Well get to it!

  1. oh, that's pretty... I bet it would make a nice pair of fingerless mitts when combined with my handspun black

  2. I'd knit Tiddy a jumper. There should just about be enough yarn to make a teddy bear very happy :o) c x

  3. I'm thinking it's going to be the Pretty Lace Hand Warmers. I'm just finishing up my first pair of fingerless mitts, and I'm feeling empowered to try something a little fancier, especially if it means not doing the thumbs!

  4. I'd love to try fingerless mitts, and haven't yet. But, that color looks like it would make a great textured hairband for my red ringlets!

  7. I would make a pair of Stulpen that would rock my socks off. ooh! Or maybe Della Mitts.

    Either way, it'd be a nice change of pace from Chartreuse.

  8. Yoga Socks. Or not. Really handspun deserves to be worn as a pretty, not a functional. So a lacy cowl.
