Handspun scarf and fingerless mitts
This is my first project made from my handspun yarn. I made it out of the brown fleece my friend Meredith gave me and the roving Abbey gave me.
The scarf was made using the Yarn Harlot’s One Row Handspun Scarf pattern. The scarf grew during blocking but that’s ok because I like scarves long anyway.
I’m a big fan of fringe. Thebes said the yarn looks like Muppet yarn which I think is super groovy.
The fingerless mitts are rectangles I made with k1p1 ribbing. Then I seamed up the side and left a space for my thumbs to stick through.
I’m pretty happy with how this set turned out!
