Holy cow did this yarn take me FOREVER! I probably spent 10 hours spinning this and the result is only 10 yards! Whattt!! I must admit, it is totally worth it! It's a pretty sweet yarn. I'll probably use it to decorate my christmas tree, but then I need to find a permanent spot for it in my house. This yarn is too cool to sit in a box for 11 months out of the year and only be used to decorate the Christmas tree. Any ideas on where I can use it in my house?

Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater
I finished spinning the batt Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater! I bought the batt from Spin Culture. Here is a picture of it from the etsy listing...
...and here it is all spun up!
I spun it into a light fingering weight and have 317 yards! I think I'm going to knit a shawl with it. I'm thinking Terribly Simple by Caitlin Ffrench. Something simple to show off the yarn. Or I could go with something a little more lacey... Seven and Zero or Holes to Make Lace . As you can see, I LOVE Caitlin Ffrench's patterns!!
