Having too many options always seems to make decisions more difficult.\u00a0 The days are ticking by on the 4 ounce challenge (deadline is Sept 30).\u00a0 I don’t have any fiber from Hello Yarn or Southern Cross Fibre, but I do have plenty of Spunky Eclectic fiber to choose from.\u00a0 That’s part of the problem.\u00a0 Well, that, and not even being able to decide what kind of pattern I want to try to come up with.\u00a0 Socks are always fun… so is lace… ooo, what about a cowl?\u00a0 If I can’t even settle on what it is I’m going to make, how can I pick the right fiber for the project?<\/p>\n
The top fiber in the running is a Spunky Club offering from last year – Selfish in Shetland.\u00a0 I’m also considering the newest shipment, which I can’t give details on yet.\u00a0 The nice thing about the Selfish is that it’s all set to go.\u00a0 When I received it last year, I split it up and pre-drafted it.\u00a0 So, it’s ready to spin.\u00a0 I’m also finding the maroon, orange, and green combination appealing.\u00a0 I think I’ll aim for a 2-ply laceweight yarn as I’m considering knitting something like a cowl or shawlette.<\/p>\n
