Obsessive yarn-gawking...

msfledermaus...I was just goofing around online and ogling various handspun yarns out there. Oooh, the prettiness makes me crazy. I want to spin like that, too! (Never mind I have a book coming to teach me how to do the more complex spinning now I've got the hang of the simple stuff.)
I also stumbled onto the Yarn Harlot who apparently understands, oh so well, the cravings I get for wool. I like her:)
I do have this thought of mixing some really lovely black merino I have with this orange wool thread someone gave me. It could be very cool and Halloweeny if I do it right. Maybe that'll be my next spinning project, just for the joy of experimentation...
(And yeah, I'm gonna put sparkles in it. So. There.)

Check out the Fall 2005:6 yarn card - 91 (Victoria) is on there... I'd love to find #113 (Vesuv) too.
Oh my...
