What a wind-up!

 





More sorting through the room full of stash-today, I tackled the yarn.   
I used to buy sacks of bin-ends, cones of 1 and 2 ply yarn, to make Kaffe Fassett jumpers.  Today I wound 5 strands to make DK yarn for a jumper, balls numbered so the colour mix flows when I get round to knitting it up.  It barely scratched the surface of whats there!











I took the pink-red-coral-lavender downstairs and wound these balls to crochet into Aran weight chevron blanket whilst I watched Mr Attenborough's 'Africa'.




 







Evenings have been spent on hand quilting 'Kiss in the Corner'-I have almost reached an edge, I feel progress is being made!
